Dunno about other parts of the world, but in the US the power company acts as a buffer between growers & LEO. They don't much care how much power one uses so long as the bill gets paid on time & the immediate part of the grid isn't over taxed.

Stealing power changes the whole dynamic. The power company cares a whole lot about that & will gleefully set LEO on a mission to ream out your nether orifice should they detect it.

Don't do that. It's a fool's move that increases liability & risk.

I agree 100%. It still amazes me how many busts I hear of where they were stealing power.
