Conspiracy in the Stealing of Electricity Detection Through the IOT

Abstract

One of the primary difficulties the distribution network needs to solve is power loss. The “power mismatch” between generation and metered consumption may be employed to describe it. This power larceny has a major influence on distribution utilities. The goal of our proposed system is to design a system to monitor the electricity used by each load and to identify and eradicate electricity theft from current lines and meters. The proposed method also addresses the issue of overloading. It also entails reporting to the Electricity Board representatives the theft that was committed via IoT. The ATmega328 microcontroller in this instance is utilised to detect energy larceny and transmit the data to the IoT module, which then transmits the data to the EB. The practical application of this proposed method results in significant electricity savings, which boosts the economy of the nation.
