Abstract
Electricity theft is responsible for economic problems for the electric utility due to revenue
loss caused by electricity consumers that are not paying for it.
In this report, a Smart Power Theft Detection System (SPTDS) with instantaneous SMS alert
is proposed. The set up contains an Smart Statistical Meter (SSM), placed at the transformer
end and or on Electric High Pole. It communicates with the various consumer meters as well
as linked with it through wireless communication i.e, WiMax. It monitors and records the
readings from the consumer end and sets it as a reference value. Whenever this reference
value is exceeded, unmetered load (illegal) is detected and this information is sent to Utility
Company through WiMax channel for further action. The algorithm for this proposed project
is modelled in MATLAB/SIMULINK and satisfactory results are expected at the end
