With the development of automatic electrical devices in smart grids, the data generated by time and transmitted are vast and thus impossible to control consumption by humans. The problem of abnormal detection in power consumption is crucial in monitoring and controlling smart grids. This article proposes the detection of electrical meter anomalies by detecting abnormal patterns and learning unlabeled data. Furthermore, a framework for big data and machine learning-based anomaly detection framework are introduced. The experimental results show that the time series anomaly detection for electric meters has better results in accuracy and time than the expert alternatives.
