An Automated Energy Metering System Using Mobile Smartphone

Abstract

Automated Energy Meter has become the technology of today. In many recent studies lots of researchers and organizations have been working on smart meter. In the smart grid, smart meters are considered the primary component which assists the customer and provider controlling the consumption or usages of power corresponding to the availability of capitals. Great losses have impacted the electricity market because of the increasing in cost. These losses of electric power have caused an economic issue, therefore in order to make an efficient use of energy, smart metering system was counted as a best solution. The planned power metering scheme composed of power meter, connection through WiFi, and web server. Single phase power indicator was deployed using ARDUINO microcontroller and connection segment was deployed through WiFi transmission. Server end and user end are executed in web server. Smart indicator has the ability of collecting the measured power and transmits that statistics to the electrical panel, which keeps the data and acknowledges the costumer throughout SMS messages
