Feature Request - reset overcurrent conditions #7

Excellent work here, thank you! During an overcurrent condition, the Hughes Autoformer, interrupts power and will wait for your reset button push within the app to reset the condition before restarting power flow. Any chance of getting this in HA?

Simulating this is easy. On a 30 amp hookup, just run AC, microwave, and coffee maker at the same time.

This has been around for awhile, but I think this would be a nice feature, if it's even possible. I've had false positive missing neutral errors trip my EPO and since my rig is parked at a remote property, I need to drive several hours just to hit the reset button. If it's a safety concern, I don't think that's really an issue since a genuine and ongoing error condition would just re-trip the device after reset.
