Abstract:
Every month we can see a person standing in front of our house from Electricity whose duty
is to read the energy meter and handover the bills to the owner of that house. This is nothing
but meter reading. According to that reading we have to pay the bills. The main drawback of
this system is that person has to go area by area and he has to read the meter of every house
and handover the bills. The Electricity board has to give privileges for these people to do
their duty monthly. The thing is, government will not appoint any particular persons for this
duty. The people working in these boards will go on a particular day and do their duty leaving
all their pending works. Due to this, their work will be delayed and this is great loss for
government. To overcome this drawback we have come up with an idea and this idea will
help the government and it will save the time of the employees working in these boards. The
aim of the project is to automate the prepaid billing of energy meter. The motivation behind
this degree project is that in Europe they are implementing the energy meters which are GSM
based which helps in many aspects. So, implementing the energy meter which is GSM based.
The project will help a lot in future in coming years especially in government sector in houses
and this project will help in many ways will reduce the human error of checking the electric
bills of the houses and this will provide the comfort to the people .
