Energy crisis is one of the major problems that the world faces today. The energy crisis can be reduced to a certain extent by properly monitoring our energy consumption and avoiding energy wastage. Nowadays people face many problems like power theft. Power theft may be a measure crime and it also directly affects the economy of our country. This system will find energy theft easily and send the notification to the user. The energy meters are connected to the PIC Microcontroller through an optocoupler. The optocoupler sensor gives an interrupt each time the meter LED ashes to the programmed PIC Microcontroller and PIC Microcontroller process this data to the ESP8266 WI-FI module then WI-FI module send this data to the blynk app. This system monitors the kWh readings and billing on LCD and also send this data into the blynk app. This design eliminates the human involvement in electricity maintenance. The normal practice for power theft is to short the input and output terminals or to place a magnet on the wheel in case of old meters. So by sensing current flow through the line & energy feedback we can prevent it using a circuit breaker. In this system, a PIC Microcontroller is interfaced with an energy metering circuit, current sensing circuit, WI-FI communication and a contactor to make or break power line. In this project we are connecting loads through relay and CT. Whenever theft was detected by the system then the PIC Microcontroller check the load status and immediately isolate the power supply through electromagnetic relay and send the notification to the user mobile into the blynk app through Wi-Fi. Here relay works as switch to on/off the power supply which is connected to the load. The main controlling device of the project is PIC Microcontroller which is programmed by Embedded C language.
