In the remote school observatory I have setup, we use a combination.

Dragonfly for triggering the roof controller and receiving inputs from limit switches/travel sensors to make sure the roof has done what you asked it to do. It can also switch DC loads.

Digital Loggers universal input PDU for AC loads - ASCOM driver available.

If you want to spend a lot of money, you can go to ACP Scheduler and have the observatory turn itself on at dusk and off at dawn, and run itself for the entire night without you even lifting a finger.
