Remotely Located Energy Meter Monitoring With Load Control and Mobile Billing System through IoT

Abstract

Electricity, one of the most important sectors for the economic development of a country is used for the various purposes. Electric power sector are included many technical and non-technical losses. Meter tampering, illegal means of electricity bill payment and so on are included in the non-technical loss. Due to this non-technical reasons 5-7% power losses of total generated power. That's why consumer has to suffer for this inconsistent billing though they use the approximately same energy in each month. This system is based on network technology, automatic meter-reading technology, and modern management ideas, which can realize the energy consumption management to be controllable, adjustable and predictable. A prior billing is bound to do away with the problems of unpaid bills and human error in meter readings, thereby ensuring justified revenue for the utility. To resolve this issue, digital energy metering system has been introduced but this technology is not capable of removing all the problems mentioned earlier. There needs modification of this system where instantaneous monitoring and digital billing system have to be added.
