Web Based Prepared Electricity Recharge Meter

Electrical power has become indispensable to human survival and progress. Apart from efforts to meet growing demand, automation in the energy distribution is also necessary to enhance people’s life standard. The present system of energy metering as well as billing which uses only electromechanical is error prone and it consumes more time and labor. And now a day’s electricity board faces a problem of revenue collection for the actual electric energy supplied owing to energy thefts and network losses. One of the prime reasons for above issues is the traditional billing system which is inaccurate many times, slow, costly, and lack in flexibility as well as reliability. This system presents a design of a single phase digital prepaid energy meter. It will be based on a micro controller and it can be either connects to the existing energy meter or can use as a separate module. The energy consumption can be calculated using output pulses of an energy usage detector module. A warning system is also introduces here to get know about the low account balance. A relay system can used which either isolates or establishes the connection between the electrical load and the supply mains depending upon the balance available in the Prepaid Electricity Meter. It will be efficient to collect revenue.
