INTRODUCTION
In India, every year there is very increasing number of electricity thefts across domestic electricity
connection as well as industrial electricity supply, which results in loss of electrical energy and because of
which we are facing the frequent problems of load shedding in urban as well as rural areas so as to
overcome the need of electricity for whole state.
In this, we propose an electricity theft detection system to detect the theft which is a made by the most
common way of doing the theft and that is bypassing the meter using the a piece of wire, people simply
bypasses electricity meter which is counting the current unit by placing a wire before and after the meter
reading unit. In this project we use current sensor, GSM, IR, LCD and relay module for supply switching.
With help of GSM, we can easily on electricity supply from anywhere .
The proposed system will be hidden in such meter and as soon as a theft occurs. This project will
automatically collect the reading from houses or industries and compares with the overhead line values
and vice versa. If any theft occurs it turns on the relay circuit and trips the main circuit
OBJECTIVE
This system would provide a simple way to detect an Electrical power theft without any
Human Interface.
It will indicate exact zone and distribution line on which unauthorized tapping is done in
real time .
It will determine transmission line faults .
To maximize revenue generation by the power utility companies .
Its cost is less as compare to other present system.
LITERATURE SURVEY
Earlier several cases related to electricity theft generally used to take place in villages because
they need more power requirement for their field to drive water pump and for motors and all
the other farm related work which requires electricity. But now days it is not limited in
villages but also industrial area as well as consumer side comes under power theft. There are
various modes of power theft such as Bogus seal and tampering of seals, Meter tampering,
meter tilting, meter interface and meter bypassing, Changing connection, Direct tapping
from line, By using remote sensing device, Improper of illegal use of power meters.

COMPONENTS
This method will reduce the energy wastage and save a lot of energy for future use.
Real time theft monitoring
The system consumes very little power for its operation.
System operation is independent of time (24 hours functioning).
This project is low budget project and easily reparable system.
LIMITATIONS
Wide range of frequencies is required to facilitate large number of users. To overcome this,
carrier levels can be changed from region to region.
Presently, it requires a power supply (230 V) for the operation, but a small battery with
automatic charging facility can be provided in real time.
Cannot determine who is stealing, but even no other existing system is capable of doing
this.
If implemented on a large scale it may take lot of time and manual input.
FUTURE SCOPE
The project model reduces the manual manipulation work and theft.
The government saves money by the control of theft in energy meter and also
More beneficial for customer side and the government side.
Cost wise low when compared to other energy meter without automatic meter reading and
theft control.
This method will reduce the energy wastage and save a lot of energy for futu
