Intelligent energy meter using gsm modem with arduino

Abstract

Automatic billing and metering is focused in our paper. Our proposed project is simulated first and then it is to be implemented on the circuit board. The energy meter reading system which has some predefined functions are done in our proposed system with the help of the GSM and Arduino. The GSM module is used to provide the energy consumption details and the electricity bill to the customers and to the concerned electricity department. When the consumption unit reading reaches beyond the specific threshold, an alert message will be sent to the customer and to the vigilance squad.LCD is used to display the power units and a notification will be sent to the customer via SMS and recharge can be done with the help of GSM module as well as PIC microcontroller.
