Abstract: India is a hotbed of electricity theft especially in rural areas and in the middle and upper populations. Electricity theft is increasing every year in the homes and industries that affect the state of the country's economy. Power theft is usually done in two ways by jumping or hooking. To see it, a proposed system (current measurement and comparison) is proposed in which the distribution of family power is done indirectly from the distribution box to each house. It is currently being rated from time to time in the distributor box and sent to the server of each used house server GSM / GPRS module It is currently being rated from time to time in the distributor box and sent to the server of each used house serve GSM / GPRS module It is currently being rated from time to time in the distributor box and sent to the server of each used house server GSM / GPRS module. The aim of this project is to design a system to monitor energy consumption and to detect and eliminate theft of electricity from transmission lines and electricity meters. This work also focuses on transmitting theft information to the Electricity Board (EB) via IoT. As the network of devices connected as sensors has the ability to exchange real-time information via the Internet. Power is periodically measured in the distributor box and sent to each house server website using a basic IoT dashboard. During the installation of electricity meter user information is stored in a database using a friendly mobile application that includes address, location. The power will be continuously measured in the distribution box and individual meters. Power values will be uploaded to the server on a distributed and one-sided server. This power will be monitored through an IoT dashboard that will be a "Blynk IoT dashboard". In this project, we will look at the power delivered from an AC source to a user and the power consumption by that user. We consider only one user for this project and one distribution box. On the basis of an effective comparison between the current values from the distribution box and the electric meter in the house, if we find the difference between the current from the distribution box and the user meter then theft is detected.
