Energy Meter Monitoring and Billing System Using IOT

Project Title

Energy Meter Monitoring and Billing System Using IOT

Project Area of Specialization Electrical/Electronic EngineeringProject Summary

Energy monitoring and theft control is the big issue of pakistan, in conventional energy meter people do meter tempering and there is no indication of theft to control station. The low efficiency equipment used in house hold is also a big loss of energy. People does not know where is the loss because the conventional energy meter does not have the ability to measure , reactive power and power factor. The meter that we are going to design have an advance functionality with parameters measurement like power factor , active power , reactive power and apparent power with current bill display on LCD. By using this system wapda can diconnect electricity remotely using IOT. This meter will shut down load power on over and voltage.

Project Objectives

The main objectives of project are 

1) Parameters display on meter LCD

2) Meter tempering monitoring and control

3) Bill display on meter 

4) Immidiate disconnectivity of power of defaulters.

5) user load protection on over and under voltage

Project Implementation Method

The project implementation steps are as follows

Literature review 

equipment selection

purchase of components

circuit designing 

algorithm designing 

simulation testing using proteus software 

PCB designing

final integeration of hardware and software 

deployment of project for testing results 

Benefits of the Project

The benifits of project are 

1) energy saving 

2) Continuously monitoring 

3) No manual meter reading 

4) No manual meter disconnectivity of defaulters.

5) over voltage and under voltage protection

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

A microcontroller based energy meter having there is no option of meter tempering. we have used ATMEGA 328 microcontroller as the main control unit and 20x4 lcd is used to display the parameters. The IOT chip is used to send and receive data on cloud server for continous monitoring and control. The current sensor is 50A and can measure a maximum of 50A current.
