how to tell a switch to turn on by script, exactly after electricity power came

dzVents can launge an eventscript triggered by a domoticz start but without additional conditions it would also switch when domoticz was restarted without a power outage. (manual system reboot or domoticz stop/start or -restart)

So you would need to build a checkfile when you intentionally reboot your system, or stop or restart domoticz.
If the checkfile is not present, the logic in dzVents will then recognize that the start was because of an external reason (eg power outage) perform the necessary actions and remove the checkfile

this article will get you started.

like waaren said, you need to distinguish between intentional power down and power loss
so, use this to write a signal file (touch ~/normalpowerdown) and test for that file on boot..
the absence if the file ~/normalpowerdown tells you if the last power down was abnormal
