IoT Enabled Smart Energy meter for power theft detection using Node MCU
In this project, the Nodemcu will continuously monitor the load based on the- parameters such as voltage, current, and power. If there are any increases in load the power supply to the load will cutoff and the Message will send to the electric board and to the user as well as they can see the power, voltage, current, and power theft message on LCD also, it will generate the bill based upon the usage of power supply. The Nodemcu again continues on monitoring the load power.

Abstract:
Electrical power theft is a major problem in power system networks all over the world, which is illegal and should be strictly prohibited. Power theft can be defined as the usage of electrical power without any contract with the supplier. In order to eliminate power theft, the location of power theft is to be known so that appropriate action will be taken against the legal offenders. The circuit consists of Nodemcu, Current, and Voltage sensors. This power theft identification system helps us to save power from more usage of power. In this, the power is monitored continuously using Nodemcu. If there are any increases in load the power supply to the load will be off. And again, the nodemcu will continuously check the load power. It has nodemcu as a core. The current transformer and voltage transformer are used to calculate the three-parameter such as voltage, current, and power. To convert the parameter the ADC (MCP 3008) IC is used. And it interfaces with nodemcu. The nodemcu is continuously checked the load connects to it if there are any increases in load the power supply to the load is shut off, it will send a message to the electric board, and again the nodemcu will continue to check the load.

Introduction:
Generation, transmission, and distribution of electrical energy involve any operational losses. Whereas losses implicated in generation can be technically defined, transmission and distribution losses cannot be precisely quantified with the sending end information. This illustrates the involvement of nontechnical parameters in the transmission and distribution of electricity. Overall technical losses occur naturally and are caused because of power dissipation in transmission lines, transformers, and other power system components. Technical losses in Transmission &Distribution are computed with the information about total load and the total energy bill. While technology is raising slopes, we should also note the increasing immoral activities. From a technical view, Power Theft is a non-ignorable crime and at the same time, it directly affected the economy of a nation. Electricity theft is a social evil, so it has to be completely eliminated. Power consumption and losses have to be closely monitored so that the generated power is utilized in the most efficient manner. The system prevents the illegal usage of electricity. At this point of technological development, the problem of illegal usage of electricity can be solved without any human control using IoT.
EXISTING SYSTEM:
- In the existing system, the power is checked manually and the reading is also checked manually.
- An Analog meter is used
DISADVANTAGES:
- Energy consumption is manual.
- Huge Manpower is needed.
- Delayed work due to external conditions.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In this proposed system, a parameter such as power, current, and voltage is checked based on the energy is calculated and the payment is generated to the respective mail. If there are increases in load the power supply to the load is cut off and a message sent regarding power usage is sent to the electric board and displayed on the LCD.
