Background :
In present scenario electricity theft is a major problem for government. This problem affects
Indian economy since GDP goes down due to theft. Electricity is a part of living and its theft effects the common man
because indirectly common man has to pay for the theft done by someone else in form of extra charges.
Methods:
In this paper, we present a novel identification pattern-based energy fault detector, by leveraging the customers'
normal and faulty line. The target of this paper is to implement a system to monitor the readings and to find the fault in
power line in real time. Manipulations in readings of meter are impossible.
Results:
There is a real time monitoring of meters. Readings could be provided to customers on daily, weekly, monthly or
yearly basis. As soon as there occur a fault, it could be rectified because detection is on real time basis and further
message can be sent to customer about the fault.
Conclusion:
A comparison of developed real time monitoring system is done with GSM meters and analog meters.
