How do you deal with Electricity Theft?
Good Day Everyone,
For those of you working in electricity utility companies, theft of electricity is a major problem. Atleast in Pakistan, there are chronic areas plagued with hook connections and meter tampering. We are trying to get the current legislation in this regard amended to provide an effective deterrent for electricity theft.
How do you people tackle this problem in your respective jurisdictions? Is the legislation in this regard effective?
Any input would be appreciated. Thanks.
Kind Regards.
Clarification added October 13, 2010:
ps. How do you penalize electricity theft offenders?
Clarification added October 15, 2010:
For eg, the Electricity Act 1910 in Pakistan penalizes consumers who steal electricity both with a fine and/or imprisonment of upto three(3) years (sec 39 and sec 39A).
In the USA for eg. theft of electricity is regulated under the Theft Act 1968 . Section 13, specifically states that a person who dishonestly uses without due authority, or dishonestly causes to be wasted or diverted, any electricity shall on conviction on indictment be liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years.
But then how does the utility company cover its loss for the time period theft is taking place, and are these penalties a good deterrent and practical?

Hi Summaiya
I am not sure the root cause is theft. Or that the cure for electricity theft is in legislation to prevent theft.
Elsewhere in the world people have no need to steal electricity as the utility company ensures effective transmission and distribution. People get electricity in their homes and places of work. Their houses or neighborhoods are not left without electricity.
Meters need tampering if the electricity company/or its employees "fix" bills on a discretionary basis.
What might be needed is better leadership and management of electricity companies rather than more controls on the consumer.

I would imagine it is like any other type of theft. I would like to see stiffer penalties as the person is stealing possibly from a neighbor and the electric company.

The only way to stop them is to put the laws into action. Lebanon is one of the best example of multi-reactions from the government to the electricity theft. At one end of the country 20%-45% of people pays for electricity and they got it 20/24 hours a day. At the other end of the country, 85% of the people pays to get 15-18 hours a day.
The laws are there and this is illegal. However, nobody respect that. Why? because the penalties are not enforced.
In Canada, the meter is in the rural house but nobody dare to touch it because they know that any tampering will result in a hefty penalty imposed right away and the loss of the energy.
Hence, the best way to start is by imposing the current regulations and update them to match the new state of the world.

Not being a lawyer or legislator, I can't comment on the legal aspects of theft of services for electricity, gas, or water. We do know, however, that the theft -- or attempted theft -- must first be detected, located, and quantified.
Electromechanical (“dumb”) meters, typically read once a month, and can easily be bypassed or made to report false reads by determined individuals. Solid state, 2-way “smart” meters, which communicate frequently with the utility’s host system, can immediately detect and alert a utility to tampering, reverse reads, interruptions, lost phases, irregular profiles, and a host of other indicators. Elster has written a white paper on the subject entitled “Deterrent and detection of smart grid meter tampering and theft of electricity, water, or gas.” It can be read at: http://www.energyaxis.com/pdf/WP42-1010A.pdf .
Also, visit the website (www.iurpa.org ) of the International Utilities Revenue Protection Association. More than twenty years old, IURPA consists of revenue protection professionals dedicated to reducing revenue loss in the utility industry.

Running your own solar panels and generation only is practical if you come from a wealthy family to begin with and can utilize old money for placement of such an array...
You penalize electricity theft offenders with a hefty jail sentence...

Hello Summaiya:
Penalize by not giving electricity no more .. and make mandatory usage of solar.
Cheers,

I am totally agree with Bilal Abdul Kader
Policy and Law Enforcement should be announce.

Chuck Sathrum gives good technology solutions for better more accurate meter reading, however the issue in Pakistan is reflective of the lack of civic ownership of people in general towards public and civil obligations that they should have towards governing of their public institutions etc.
This apathy has many causes, i personally think that the best way to turn the situation favourably is to make an example of a few of the bigger fish, in Pakistan this issue is intertwined very closely to the corrupt political fabric of the land. When corruption and theft find willing and equally corrupt political partronage then the problem gets amplified.
In any case i think two things may work, firstly get the army as an institution involved (in some sort of a 'save pakistan' spin) and second be more creative at the consumer end, try offering electricity discounts or loyalty program for consumers that regulalry pay their bills. Why not run a consumer promotion? The extra consumers that would start paying would most likely cover the cost of a promotion...

Electricity theft is a universal problem,which can never be stopped.Better start with solar power in a very small way then increase as per your funds.That is the only solution to this theft.So start working on those lines.Though late,never too late.

This is a serious issue in many countries.
People tamper meters by reversing the polarity. And now the new Energy meters have the anti tampering circuit to avoid reverse polarity.
Then the farmers were allowed free electricity for pumpsets for their farm lands and it became a political issue whrn electricity authorities wanted farmers to pay. Then some compromise was reached and I think now they charge a flat rate instead of charging number of units used. This gives atleast some revenue.
Some Industries attempt to steal electricity by illegal connections and sometimes even the staff of Electricity authorities are involved. They even lay a parallel cable, by-passing the meter. With a simple hidden change over switch, they tap the main line and use it and change the switch to meter to record some minimum usage. This is addressed by organizing the raids on suspected industries. Some times trapped corrupt employee spills beans and you can get lot of the cases exposed.
Another way to stop this could be to lay underground cable inside a GI pipe, so that people can not tap the power line whenever and wherever they want.

Though I do not possess any expertise in the production and distribution of electricity, I think of a way to stop the kind of tampering with electrical meters and stealing electricity using hooked connections.
From the question I guess the distribution of electricity in Pakistan is much like the same way as we do in India. It is based on this I am suggesting what I feel could be a possible solution.
Install a common meter for all the consumers in each area. If there are for instance 50 consumers in one particular area, there will be a common meter for all these 50 consumers besides their individual meters. The sum of the readings of all the 50 meters should tally with the reading recorded in the common meter. Should there be wide variation in the readings it can be presumed that there is theft in that area. This however requires recording the readings of all the individual meters and the common meter almost simultaneously which might not be a constraint. With the help of the vigilance wing of the electricity distribution company it should be easy to track down the thieves. Rewarding the customers who tip off the authorities of the theft will also help.

The laws about electricity theft have to be enforced. Without that there's nothing you can do. Theft also has to be detected. Have people constantly checking the distribution system so anything out of place can be detected. Constantly rotate people from area to area so that it isn't always the same person checking the same areas.
If you have a little money to work with, tag the service lines with numbers on colored tags that can be read from the ground. Watch for service lines with no tags. Change the tag's colors and numbers randomly every few months so that the people checking the system can't turn in the same reports over and over.
If you have a lot more money to work with, start installing smart meters for every customer. Start running the distribution network at a higher voltage and install a step-down transformer for every customer. That way it can't be used by people tapping the lines unless they have their own step-down transformers. Start installing meters in the distribution network so you can compare them to the customers' meter readings. (Much like Martin Palliath mentioned.)
If you have even more money to work with and you're allowed to go on the offensive, install remote switches for the paying customers. Randomly pick a time, several times a week or more. Disconnect the paying customers to protect their equipment. Then raise the network voltage to a dangerous level so that it will damage equipment not made for it. Hold it long enough to have effect. Lower the voltage to the normal level and reconnect the paying customers.

Electricity Theft is everywhere and normally it's the meter or power guy who is in cahoots with the thieve. So the only way is to deal with the utility man on the street.
In Singapore..no one dares to do so ..as the punishment is cane, fine and shamed..plus the jail terms. And of course, the person who tells on the culprit get a token..usually about 10-30% of the fine. Utility Companies have ways to know if they have power theft, but anything over 20% is a cause for concern as it will cause power outages in the supply grid, due to the fact that power must be spent the minute it is created.
Power dissipation is about 10% loss, depending on weather and the efficiency of the transmission network. Likewise, the biggest culprits are INDUSTRIES as they use quite a load, usually at least in the thousands of KWH, with a light industry taking 3 phase 415V (380 in US) 100A load will draw about 45,000 KWH a month, and with a cheat, stealing 1 phase off the load line, he would save about 20% of his costs, as much as USD10,000 in some countries.
However, this is negligible to the power company. They will try to catch these culprits, but it's a catch me if you can. The fines are not as much as how much they saved, as I know personally that a company here get fined up to USD10,000 but if they saved 30k, it's still worth it.
End consumers are in terms of numbers, the biggest but not the highest volume as compared to the Industrial Theft. A Distribution Point (Power Riser) to the end user is 3 phase 400A 240V max, giving the maximum payload to the users (usually about 100 homes, with 40A max meters) without a drop in the RMS, unless they steal the neutral bar. This is the just 10% of the amount the Industrial riser is supplied.
Yes, they hit the consumer hardest...just to teach them a lesson, but companies are the biggest thieves and many are given discounts for their real readings as they are usually up to 35% over supply in the power grid.
Enforcement is hard to apply where corruption is rampant. But it's a no biggie for the power grid.

Oh I'm familiar with such theft.
In my country you call the police; they will "disarm" the "apparel" for the electricity theft.
Everybody laughs a lot because the minute police walk away; everything is "rearmed" in 5 minutes.
The police will be asked to go there several times/day, but will go once or twice (luckily) in a week.
You can go to court, but against whom?
There are no faces; people do this for large groups.
It is a shame.
