Patent ID: 10859622

Abstract:
Detection and correction of technical and non-technical errors in smart grid power distribution are described. A system, method and non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions stored therein that, when executed by one or more processors, causes the one or more processors to perform a method for detecting and correcting technical and non-technical power losses in a smart grid that feature the following functions: remotely characterizing and updating the cables impedances, detecting and classifying the types of losses, estimating the technical and non-technical power losses when a check or smart meter is in error, estimating losses due to tapping a power cable by a registered or an unregistered user, and estimating losses due to a cyber attack. Technical errors corrected are impedance and reactance losses in the power distribution. Non-technical errors identified and corrected are no error, check meter in error, smart meter in error, tapping service cables, or cyber attacks.
