Theft of electricity is the criminal practice of stealing electrical power. Theft of electricity is not only a loss toindividual but it is loss to society and nation at larger.In the world Electricity theft is a major growing problem. Like many other developing countries India is alsovictim ofelectricity theft.To detect an unauthorized tapping on distribution lines the electrical power theft detection system isused.Electricity theft can be in the form of meter tampering, illegal connections, and unpaid bills.

It has always been a difficult task for the government ofthe and the Electricity Company to achieve their power theft activities.It deals with eliminating all these difficulties by asimple device to send a message whenever there is a power theft activity at a certain area. It will protect distributionnetwork from power theft done in the particular area
