Item Smart energy meter(AIKTC, 2018-05) Hule, Shraddha; Khan, Yusuf J. (15DEE23); Deshmukh, Mohammad (15DEE11); Shaikh, Faisal K (14EE36); Shaikh, Itban (14EE38)It is a difficult job for the electricity board officials to manually take meter readings and calculate bill as it is time consuming and requires man power. Billing consumers for energy consumption is not uniform. It is a tedious job for the electricity board official to manually go and take meter readings of big industrialists and reset their maximum demand after recording it. Even the latest energy meter is not tamper proof. Hence considering all these factors it is possible to design an energy meter that is tamper proof, supports automatic metering and billing system. Also at the same time helps in finding the energy theft in transmission lines. Considering all these features that can be done by a single energy meter it is called a SMART ENERGY METER. The smart energy meter will be an electronic device that will record consumption of electric energy and communicate the data collected to the electricity supplier for monitoring and billing. It typically records energy hourly or more frequently. The gathered statistics is then transmitted to the supplier and corresponding billing calculation is done. Communications from the meter to the network may be wireless, or via fixed wired connections such as power line carrier (PLC). Our project uses embedded GSM technology to transmit the data from meter to the service provider.
