Abstract

This document explained that the water provided to the consumer/purchaser is delivered at a constant flow rate. Certain consumers/buyers may take additional water by hooking up motors to pump water directly from the mains, and this is considered water theft. It is proposed to develop a microcontroller-based water supply monitoring and theft detection system by recording the overflow rate on the side. To apply the proposed water supply system, each consumer can be equipped with a microcontroller kit to detect the flow rate with a flow detector. It is also equipped with a motorized solenoid valve for supplying water to the consumer. In the event of theft on the water line, the higher water volume and corresponding charge will be sent to the consumer ID. If the consumer does not pay or uses more water, the valve is turned off via the microcontroller, cutting off the water supply. The LCD is connected to the microcontroller and displays data locally. The proposed automated architecture is fully programmed, so no human effort is required.
