How Can Remote Smart Power Meters Prevent Electricity Theft?

In addition to the traditional metering function, the remote smart meter also has a variety of intelligent functions. Can the remote smart meter prevent electricity theft? How to prevent electricity theft? Next, this article will answer you one by one.

Can remote smart power meters prevent electricity theft?

Of course, it can! The so-called electricity stealing is nothing more than magnetic field interference stealing (using magnetic interference to interfere with the operation of the internal components of the meter to steal electricity), removing voltage stealing (removing a certain line voltage in the meter to steal electricity). Or install a meter inverter to steal electricity (use the inverter to change the phase angle or size of the current and voltage of the meter to make the meter reverse to steal electricity) and so on. For remote smart meters with anti-theft function like our company, it is very difficult to steal electricity.

How can remote smart power meters prevent electricity theft?

Take Our remote smart meter as an example to explain how to prevent electricity theft.

1. Remote smart meter measurement is not affected by magnetism.

Our remote smart meter uses the real-time sampling of the user's power supply voltage and current, and then uses the meter integrated circuit to process the sampling and convert it into a proportional pulse output, which is processed and controlled by the single-chip microcomputer to display the pulse as electricity consumption and the principle of output to carry out energy measurement.

From the perspective of measurement principle, the remote smart meter is completely different from the traditional meter and has nothing to do with the magnetic field.

2. The remote smart meter event recording function can check the stolen electricity at any time.

The meter will automatically record the time of programming, opening the cover, power failure, time setting and other events, as well as the state of the meter when the event occurs. If someone changes the line voltage or installs a meter inverter, etc., you can easily find out whether electricity is stolen from the user's electricity consumption record, the meter opening record, and the number of times of voltage loss and current loss of each phase.

3. Remote smart meter circuit abnormal alarm and anti-stealing function.

Our smart meter has built-in anti-reverse device and monitoring function, which can measure operating parameters such as voltage, current (including neutral line), active power and power factor, and the meter will not reverse more than one circle. In addition, if the meter has circuit abnormalities such as voltage phase loss, voltage loss, current loss, power failure, overpower, and malignant load, the meter will send an alarm signal and automatically trip.

4. The lead seal and meter box can effectively protect the smart meter.

Each meter has a lead seal when it leaves the factory. If you want to disassemble the meter and modify the meter, you must break the lead seal. In addition, most of the electricity meters are now installed in the meter box and blocked. It is difficult for users to directly touch the electricity meter as before.

5. Smart meter + remote meter reading system to prevent electricity theft in real time.

Our remote meter reading system controls the operating status and monitoring data of all electrical equipment in the area. All electricity consumption data will be remotely monitored in real time and analyzed in multiple dimensions. If any abnormality is found, the system will immediately send an early warning notification and automatically trip through the computer, mobile phone, text message, etc. Managers can quickly find out abnormal causes and solve problems through data prompts, effectively preventing accidents and electricity theft.
