The project addresses the critical issue of energy theft in households and commercial sectors by deploying an innovative solution using ESP32 microcontroller technology. The system employs two meters—one for the distribution line and one for the consumer side—to monitor energy consumption. A disparity between these readings indicates potential power leakage, triggering theft detection measures. The ESP32 microcontroller facilitates real-time communication between the meters and a central server. The system leverages the Blynk Application Dashboard to display crucial metrics such as Voltage, Current, Power, and total energy consumption (in kWh). In the event of a mismatch between distribution and consumer readings, signifying theft, an immediate notification is sent to the associated mobile app, and power to the consumer side is automatically disconnected. This project addresses the urgent need for a reliable and proactive system to combat energy theft. By seamlessly integrating ESP32 technology, the system ensures swift detection, notification, and intervention, thereby contributing to the integrity of the energy distribution network and promoting fair usage practices.
