@rajendra.prajapat ,

the answer is quite simple: Actuators are not supported with Python scripts.
See the link

@h_eger Thanks heger, table on given link seem to confusing. I have tested the combination of custom valve python with default python actuator.

@rajendra.prajapat ,

Yes that is correct Python Script Valve and Standard Actuator works.
Unfortunately, Python Script Valve and Python Script Actuator or Stadard Valve Body and Python Script Actuator do not work.
