The Technical Revisions Required to Prevent Electricity Theft

Elektrik kaçırma gelişen ve gelişmekte olan birçok ülkede etraflı bir problemdir. Elektrik kaçırma büyük ekonomik kayıplara neden olmasına ve güç şebekelerinin güvenirliliğini azaltmasına rağmen bu problem büyümeye devam etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, elektrik kaçırmayı engellemek için gerekli olan revizyonlar belirtilmekte ve bu revizyonları içeren yeni dağıtım şebekesi konfigürasyonu gösterilmektedir. Geleneksel şebekelerde dağıtım gerilimi elektrikli cihazlarda doğrudan kullanılabilirdir. Kullanılabilir dağıtım gerilimi elektrik kaçırmayı kolaylaştırdığından önerilen konfigürasyonda en önemli revizyon bozuk dağıtım gerilimidir. Ancak, dürüst olmayan tüketiciler sayaç kurcalama, kanunsuz bağlantı, aydınlatma hattını kullanma ev kontrol paneline müdahale gibi çeşitli elektrik kaçırma teknikleri kullanmaktadır. Bu yüzden, önerilen şebeke konfigürasyonu yaygın olarak kullanılan elektrik kaçırma teknikleri göz önüne alınarak tasarlanmıştır

Elektrik Kaçırmayı Engellemek için Gerekli Olan Teknik Revizyonlar

Electricity theft is a comprehensive problem in both developing and developed countries. Although the theft causes great economic losses and reduces reliability of power grids, the problem continues to grow. In this study, the revisions required to prevent electricity theft are specified and a new distribution grid configuration with revisions is presented. Distorted distribution voltage is the most significant revision in the new configuration since traditional distribution voltage is directly consumable in electric powered devices and facilitates the theft. But, dishonest customers utilize various theft techniques such as power meter tampering, illegal connections to the streetlights line and manipulation of power control panel. Therefore, the proposed grid configuration was designed by considering widely used electricity theft techniques
