Abstract:
Electricity theft is one ofthe 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
provide a solution to this problem, the concept of SMART GRID is introduced, using
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
NAN network, a small network consisted of automesh devices that sends up its
monitored readings to Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud, which is then passed
through “MQTT-Topics”, rules and Lambda function to Losant IoT Enterprise, for
visualization, potential theft identification and analysis.
