How to bypass the antimagnetic seal - varieties, principle of operation, how to fight + video
Companies, engaged in the production of meters of energy consumption, constantly improve their products and protect them from attempts to break or change the true evidence. However, it is difficult to stop folk craftsmen, and they are in constant search of opportunities to bypass the most advanced mechanisms, used by manufacturers. In recent years, unscrupulous citizens of our country have used very powerful neodymium magnets to deceive surveillance services., able to stop any counter.
However, not so long ago for water protection, gas and electric meters, began to use antimagnetic seal-sticker. With the advent of new tools among the people, who are accustomed to saving illegally on utility bills, stormy discussions began to take place about it, how to deal with them. So as not to do nonsense, every homeowner, who uses various utilities, must know - whether it is realistic to bypass protection at home?
What it is
To date, various types of antimagnetic stickers have been developed, which visually indicate an attempt to affect the electric meter with a strong magnetic field. In the beginning 2011 year in the territorial space of the former Soviet Union, such devices began to be installed on water meters, gas and light. But the ingenuity of modern man has helped folk craftsmen to find ways to deal with some stickers, although there are not many successful attempts. Energy services are not sitting still and they have developed more sophisticated protection.
What do the markings mean?, numbers and text
Antimagnetic seal is nothing else, like a sticker, based on a special sealing tape and equipped with an airtight capsule, in which there is a magnetically sensitive suspension. Microscopic particles, contained in the suspension, sensitive to magnetic fields, exceeding 100 мТл. By changing its original state and spreading inside the capsule, they report the effect of the magnet on the power consumption monitoring device. The indicator seal is mounted by gluing it to the housing of the control meter.
In the normal state, the indicator element has a uniform consistency, in shape resembles a black dot with a cross section up to 2 mm. If such a protective sticker is affected even for a short time by a magnet, the point changes its structure, spreading over the entire area. In this case, all antimagnets are numbered individually, they cannot be removed from the housing of the device, as this leads to its destruction and the appearance of the corresponding inscription.
The following elements are installed in accordance with the basic sample of the already existing act on sealing the meter by the representative of the energy inspectorate in the presence of the homeowner. In this case, the consumer must be explained, that in case of protection on the individual control device of electricity consumption, additional utilities will be charged in accordance with the current government decree.
What threatens to remove the protective sticker
Despite the fact that among consumers of electricity there are rumors about the fight against antimagnetic sealing, it is not easy to deceive her. The most difficult is the indicator in the form of a black dot in an airtight capsule, which is triggered by any influence of the magnetic field. Any attempt to disrupt the integrity of the security feature will result in the following consequences:
- spreading the suspension inside the capsule;
- change the color of the sticker;
- loss of rigidity or drinking control pattern;
- the appearance of a warning inscription on the seal.
If the energy inspector inspects the damaged sticker, the cunning homeowner will be held administratively liable.. The penalty will be written out and at detection of attempts of peeling off by an antimagnetic sticker and at any influence on the electric meter by a magnetic field.
How to bypass the antimagnetic seal - popular ways
Naturally, enterprises, which supply energy to consumers, try their best to protect themselves from possible theft of resources, but at the same time try to save on protection. Sometimes they establish elements of questionable quality, which folk craftsmen are able to bypass. However, if the meter is installed ??modern antimagnetic seal, then all known ways to bypass it, lead to a negative result.
There is a misconception, that layer, self-adhesive stickers may move away from the body when heated with a hair dryer. In reality, when heated, in addition to violating the integrity of protection, nothing good will happen.
- Folk craftsmen went further, having decided, what if the heat doesn't help, you need to use the cold. However, as in the case of rising temperatures, freezing will damage the sticker and detect fraud.
- But the most popular is mechanical impact. Some fans of experiments prick the capsule with sharp objects, without thinking, that it is one with the sticker. Other craftsmen resort to disassembling the meter itself. But all attempts fail and, Consequently, to an administrative fine after a visit to the house by the inspector during the next scheduled inspection.
But still, despite the setbacks, scammers do not tire of looking for ways, how to bypass antimagnetic seal. Unfortunately for the attackers, there are no effective ways to deceive such protection. Therefore, punishment for the crime will not be avoided. Although it does not apply to honest utility payers.
Summing up, we can say with confidence, who want to change the readings of energy monitoring devices, be it water, light or gas, sooner or later fail and their cunning plans will be revealed in the process of the next inspection of meters. And in this situation they will be punished in the form of an administrative fine in a fairly large amount, and in particularly severe cases - complete disconnection from utilities and even criminal liability.
