DETECTION OF ELECTRICITY THEFT BY USING PLC TECHNIQUE FROM POWER CONSUMERS WHILE DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY
Abstract
Now a day, Electricity theft is one of the major losses for department of electricity board.
In the electrical power system, Electricity theft is Non technical losses which are created by illegal consumers in the distribution network. Distribution power losses arise from several areas including the power theft, un-billed accounts, and estimated customer accounts, errors due to the approximation of consumption by un-metered supplies and metering errors Electricity theft can be in the form of meter tampering, illegal connections (stealing) , billing irregularities, and unpaid bills. The detection of electrical theft by the consumers can be monitored by using the PLC technique which means power line carrier signal which is injected in the transmission line and this will detect the illegal usage of electricity in prior and maintains the power factor. The results will be monitored by using the MATLAB software, it shows simulation results and about the scheme as simple.
