Popis: Non-technical losses (NTL) refer to unrecorded power consumption generated by dishonest customers, which is a substantial issue affecting the power system stability and economic efficiency of the power grid. The detection of dishonest customers is hindered by the complexity of NTL such as data feature selection, retention time feature, and power consumption pattern judgment. This work addresses these issues using meter recording data, proposing an NTL detection approach with Gram’s angle field (GAF) and deep residual network (ResNet). Principal component analysis (PCA) method is applied to compress multiple electricity detection indexes, which aims to obtain multi-dimensional power consumption data characteristics without changing its timing characteristics. The GAF method is used to convert the time-series power features of individual users into a two-dimensional image, achieving the purpose of maintaining the user’s time-series features and user-based units. The images generated by the GAF method, which contain information about the electricity consumption characteristics of many customers, are classified by ResNet to highlight customers with NTL. The claimed algorithm was tested on a dataset consisting of both fraudulent and non-fraudulent subscriber data. The results demonstrated that the NTL detection method based on GAF and ResNet is superior to the traditional NTL detection method and has high accuracy.
