Abstract: This paper proposes an idea about the development and designing of a prepaid GSM based energy meter system by which we can monitor the consumption of electricity at domestic level and if the electricity bill is not paid on time, this system will automatically restrict the supply of electricity. The proposed system also helps in reduction of usage of electricity and minimizes the power thefts. This system uses GSM technology to send information about power consumption through message on phone. An automatically alert message will be sent to the consumer if the power consumption reaches the minimum amount. In our system we have used digital meter in place of analog meter. The digital energy meter used here is of single phase power meter, high accuracy, and low cost. As humans are more prone to errors so this automated system helps to reduce huge amount of human work.. This system works with more versatility, more accuracy, and with least error. This paper contains the construction and implementation of a system involving hardware to control electrical and electronics systems. This system can be used in electricity distribution companies for good energy conservation and management.
