AUTOMATIC ENERGY METER WITH POWER THEFT DETECTOR USING GSM TECHNOLOGY

Abstract: In the resent technology development everything became automated .Automatic energy meter (AEM) is one among them. In this automatic energy meter amount of power consumption is calculated on monthly basis and the calculated data (amount of power consumption) is send to the Electricity board for billing and EB again send back the bill amount to the every user. This energy meter also alert the EB in case of any detection of power theft .This system uses ATMEGA microcontroller for collection and manipulation of data and the technology used here for communication is GSM technology.
