Electricity Theft Detection

Abstract


This paper presents detection of electricity theft with the help of using various images of smart meter grid. There are various pre-existing systems for detecting electricity theft but very less studies were successful in discovering electricity stealing behaviour. This system therefore gives the predictive accuracy of various machine learning methodologies that includes OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and SARIMAX Classifier for forecasting the thefts. Machine learning helps in detecting theft quickly and accurately.
