Automated energy meter

Abstract

In recent years, the Smart Energy Meter has attracted a lot of attention from all over the world. In this paper a design and prototyping a low-cost IoT energy monitoring is presented, which may be utilized in a variety of applications such as power billing, smart grid energy management, and home automation. The system is based on a low-cost ESP32 microcontroller that is interfaced non-invasive Current Sensors, and Voltage Sensor to get data from sensor nodes and deliver it to a Blynk server over the internet. The studies' findings showed that the system for monitoring energy consumption can precisely record voltage, current, active power, and cumulative power consumption. According to the market requirements of Electric Meters. Nowadays, the system will use ZigBee and GSM systems for communication protocol. The ZigBee is used since the application does not need a high-speed data rate, need to be low powered and low-cost. Presenting the remote wireless Electric Meter Reading System, aims at resolving the shortcomings of the technology of the traditional Electric Meter Reading, combining the characteristics of the ZigBee technology and IEEE802.15.4 standard. Electricity is one of the fundamental necessities of human beings, which is commonly used for domestic, industrial, and agricultural purposes. Power theft is the biggest problem in recent days which causes a lot of loss to electricity boards. In countries like India, these situations are more often. If we can prevent these thefts, we can save a lot of power. This is done using Automated Energy Meter (AEM). AEM is an electronic device with having energy meter for measuring the electric energy consumed and a wireless protocol for data communication
