DEVELOPMENT OF ALGORITHM FOR DETECTING UNAUTHORIZED ELECTRICITY CONSUMPTION IN MUNICIPAL-DOMESTIC NETWORKS BASED ON PROCESSING OF LOAD PROFILES
Abstract
The article suggests an algorithm for constructing an imitation model that makes it possible to investigate the effectiveness of applying various criteria for identifying consumers with unauthorized electricity consumption (EE) in public utility networks with a voltage of 0.4 kV. The software implementation ofthis algorithm allows the development of new criteria for the detection of EE PDs based on Smart Metering technology. The main advantage of the algorithm is the ability to simulate different situations with minimal effort and reduce possible errors in the calculation of statistical parameters of load profiles.
