IoT Based EB Billing Automation System

In this system an automatic meter reading system is designed using IOT Technology. The embedded micro controller is interfaced with the ESP8266 Module. This setup reads energy consumption data based on which the consumption data is calculated. This controller calculates the data and transfers that data to IOT Module. The IOT will provide the remote communication of the EB reading data to the remote EB server. The system or the EB sever generates the customer bill in every two months once as per government norms based on power usage of the customer. Then the used unit rate values are verified by EB official. According to the readings, the billing information also can be viewed by the authorized customer. If the bill due exceeds a particular period and customer doesn’t pay bill on-time, the power supply to the corresponding home can be disconnected by the authority by accessing the control provided on the server. Once the payment of bill is done the power supply is given to the customer through IOT server page. Power management concept is introduced, in which during the restriction mode only limited amount of power supply can be used by the customer.
