MINIMIZING ELECTRICITY THEFT USING : INTERNET OF THINGS

Abstract

Electricity theft is one of the major, issues for a. country as well as a critical problem for electricity companies which faces huge amount of loss daily because of it. To is introduced, using : provide a solution to this problem, the concept of SMART GRID latest cloud connectivity. Smart Grid provides two-way communication between ' ■; supply and consumption of electricity, which would be viable to identify theft easily. We have made cost-effective cost effective monitoring devices that are connected to small network consisted of automesh devices that sends up its NAN network, a monitored readings to Amazon Web-Services (AWS) cloud, which is then passed through “MQTT-Topics”, rules and Lambda function to Losant loT Enterprise, for visualization, potential theft identification and analysis. .
