DETECTION DEVICE AND DETECTION SYSTEM

摘要

A detection apparatus (102) connected to a device in a residence and an electricity meter (100) indicating an amount of electric power consumed by the device in the residence, the detection apparatus (102) including: a reception unit (1021) which receives the amount of electric power from the electricity meter (100); a collection unit (1024) which collects usage status of the device; a device information holding unit (1027) which holds device information including the usage status of the device and electric power consumption of the device corresponding to the usage status; and a determination unit (1025) which determines whether or not the electricity meter (100) is tampered, by comparing an estimated electric power consumption amount with the amount of electric power received by the reception unit (1021), the estimated electric power consumption amount being estimated from the usage status of the device by using the device information, in which the determination unit (1025) determines that the electricity meter (100) is tampered, when a difference between the estimated electric power consumption amount and the amount of electric power received by the reception unit (1021) is equal to or more than a predetermined threshold.
