Automatic Power Theft Protection Using Arduino

Abstract

Energy stealing is a highly general complication among countries as Bangladesh where consumers of energy are attractive consistently as the demography increment. Necessity in electricity process are ruiming the sum of produce every year remaining to energy stealing. It is perfectly unattainable to check and make up out stealing by going each customer’s door to door. In this project, a new method is pursued based on Microcontroller Atmega328P to find out and monitoring the energy meter from power stealing and it by remotely disconnect and reconnecting the service line of a particular consumer. An SMS will be sent automatically to the utility central server through GSM module whenever unauthorized activities detected and a separate message will send back to the microcontroller in order to disconnect the unauthorized supply.
