Embedded Energy Meter- A New Concept To Measure The Energy Consumed By A Consumer And To Pay The Bill

ABSTRACT
In this paper, a new concept of energy meter will be discussed, where maximum demand of energy of a consumer will be indicated in the meter used by the consumer. After exceeding the maximum demand, the meter and hence the connection will automatically be disconnected by an embedded system inserted in the meter itself. According to the maximum demand, the consumer will purchase a cash-card of amount depending on the consumption of energy and after the full consumption, the consumer again has to purchase another cash-card or recharge the same and thus the hassle related to go to the billing office, to stand in a long queue and to submit the bill, can be avoided. Also this system helps to eliminate the draw backs of billing management system, such as to take the reading from the meter, to create the bill, to print the bill, to send the bill to the proper address and to collect the amount for the bill. Hence this system can effectively reduce the man power required to a great extent. Also a new concept of a distributor has been dealt here which is used to disconnect a line if the energy consumption per day of a consumer greatly exceeds a pre-demand energy consumption per day. With the help of this system electric supply authority can detect a power hacker also.
