The article touches upon the problems of interference in the electricity metering system and different types of electricity loss underestimation. It has been stated that in modern conditions the only effective way to identify and prevent violations is to install a remote electricity meter at the borderline of balance and operational responsibilities. РиМ 384.02 smart electricity meter is considered as an example. A picture of the device is presented and its main positive characteristics are listed. It has been proposed to introduce the twenty-four-hour video surveillance and video recording system into an expensive smart electricity meter in order to maintain the integrity and operability of the device. Video stream processing by means of machine vision and machine learning has been proposed. The economic feasibility of digitalization of the technological video surveillance system is being substantiated. The need of optimization of the electrical networks, the improvement of electricity metering system and of introducing the new information technologies in energy sales has been substantiated
