Design a device to detect unauthorized tapping of service cable

Stealing of electricity is one of the major problems that power distributors and suppliers face since it directly affects in reducing their annual turnover. Such consumers and their incorrect electrical systems should be properly recognized before taking any legal action against them. Illegal tappin...
