Power theft detection using GSM

Electricity is now more than a necessity. The need of electricity is increasing day by day. With increasing need of electricity the power theft is also increasing. It has become a must to develop a system to avoid the increasing theft. With the development of GSM network and its increasing popularity, GSM Modem and Short Message are gradually used to transmit information but there are still a few shortcomings, such as the unsatisfactory real-time ability to control the theft of electricity when user is not at home. The objective of this project is to design a system in order to avoid the theft of power for the users from paying heavy bill irrespective of use of the electricity due to theft .Utility companies are under pressure. Growing populations are using increasing amounts of power, which is putting a strain on existing supplies. In many countries the increase in demand is growing at a faster rate than transmission capacity and the cost of providing power is also increasing due to higher fuel prices and increases in the cost of construction and capital expenses. This project provides an overview of Wireless Sensor Network for Power Management as well as theft indicator system it can provide. It then looks at how fits into this picture, and the ways in which it is ideally suited for the development. Our project uses microcontroller along with, sensors and GSM module to send the message.
