IoT Based Energy Meter with Tampering Detection and Power Saving

Abstract

The IoT based Smart and many function Energy Meter for Automatic Meter Reading using Arduino kit. It has provision of connecting with Central database maintained by energy provider using computing as well as Tampering detection of energy meters. which can prevent theft detection from unregisterd users saving losses due to it. Remarkable feature of this meter is Internet of Things based implementation According to the market requirements of Arduino Meter there is use for smart. Arduino Meter. Nowadays the system will use Wireless system for communication protocol. The Wireless is used since the application need high speed data rate, need to be less powered with low cost. In this paper presenting the remote wireless Arduino Meter Reading System. This is to resolving the shortcomings of the technology of the traditional Arduino Meter Reading, by combining the characteristics of the Wireless technology and with Microcontroller ATMega16. The hardware implementation was designed, and then analyzed the use cases for Arduino Meter. There are more chances of manual error, delay in processing, tampering of the meter and misusage of the Electricity by other sources. It requires so many workers, one set of workers to note down the reading and other set to cut the power if the payment is not paid at the right time.
