DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF GSM BASED REMOTE ENERGY METERING SYSTEM USING INTERNET OF THINGS
Electricity is one of the basic requirements for the people and widely used for commercial, industrial and agricultural purposes. This paper presents a facility of energy consumption measurement directly to the consumer’s mobile through GSM or any wireless devices. This paper demonstrates about the methods to fetch the data from energy meter to microcontroller at consumer end and also transmitting the consumption readings to consumer. This system will be beneficial for the consumer to manage power and they can recharge through accessing the android application, website, RFID tag. It is easy to operate and cost effective. Another advantage of this system is to minimize human errors in taking meter readings and preparing bills to a large extent. Using wireless communication, it is easy to monitor the energy meter reading without any manpower preventing possible energy theft.
