Loss Detection and Theft Prevention

Protect revenue, identify tampering and uncover hidden losses with real-time intelligence.

Our Mission

Strengthening Revenue Protection Across the Network

Utilities around the world face rising non-technical losses from meter tampering, bypasses, illegal connections and unmetered supply. Senapt’s Loss Detection & Theft Prevention solution provides continuous monitoring and automated analysis to help utilities detect, investigate and respond to these issues quickly and accurately.

By combining smart meter data, transformer-level insights and event-driven alerts, Senapt helps utilities pinpoint where losses occur and take action before they impact revenue or grid reliability.

What the Loss Detection System Delivers

Real-Time Monitoring of Consumption Patterns

The system continuously analyses energy flow across the network to identify unusual trends, suspicious drops or consumption that doesn’t match expected usage.

Tamper and Reverse Flow Detection

Smart meters automatically flag attempts to bypass or interfere with the device, including magnetic tampering, reverse energy flows and unauthorised openings.

Remote Disconnect Capability

When confirmed tampering occurs, utilities can remotely disconnect the meter or switch to safe mode, preventing further losses and reducing risk.

Feeder and Transformer-Level Insights

By comparing energy sent versus energy billed, the system identifies zones with discrepancies, helping teams target investigations efficiently.

Key Platform Features

Automated Alerts & Notifications

The system generates immediate alerts for abnormal events, helping operations teams take swift action and reduce financial impact.

Field Team Integration

Case management tools and event histories help investigators track incidents, assign tasks and document findings.

Detailed Loss Analytics

Heatmaps, dashboards and historical data allow utilities to visualise patterns over time and anticipate where losses may occur next.

Flexible Rule Configuration

Utilities can define thresholds, triggers and alarm types that align with their operational needs and regulatory environment.

Secure, Reliable Data Flow

All detection processes use validated AMI and HES data, ensuring accurate insights and secure communication.​
