In this paper, we identified electric meter tampering as a major problem for DISCOs and developed a technique that determined the status of each customer’s electricity meter using 100 samples data points on electricity consumption data. The data was modeled and the expected electricity consumption for the month was determined. We also determine the consumers meter status and classify them based on...

"Going green" is a term that is increasingly used, is not well understood, and has many economic and technical implications - from the materials being used to the type of energy being used, and the quantity being consumed. Each aspect of going green also has reliability implications due to the inherent reliability risks that arise when we change material properties or design concepts. Companies...

As the information exchange media between electric meters and electricity sales systems, the smart card solves the recovery problems of electric bill. This paper in detail describes the process of CPU card in the pre-paid electricity sales management system and key management system. And from the standpoint of CPU card file structure, it puts forward the way of a multi-purpose card, avoiding the repeated...

The current trend in the electric utility industry is toward time-varying pricing models where the price varies with demand. This requires automated meter reading (AMR) systems that can obtain accurate data about the consumption of electricity over relatively short intervals, which requires that AMR systems have increasingly higher bandwidth and make more efficient use of available bandwidth. Efficiency...

The city of Kinshasa, capital city of the Democratic Republic of Congo, receives its electric power supply from the National Electricity Society (SNEL). The structure of Kinshasa's distribution network was inherited from its colonial period. Secondary network systems were incorporated into the main system after they emerged from new towns and villages as a consequence of the population explosion brought...
