Prepaid Energy Meter Using Gsm And Arduino

DOWNLOAD ABSTRACT

AIM:

Design and development of Prepaid Energy Meter using GSM with Arduino.

PURPOSE:

Energy meters are more important to read power consumption of home, offices and industries. But all existing Energy meters are static and wattage information displayed on on display of Energy meter. Wireless and remote kind of energy meters are helpful to monitor from remote places. Prepaid recharge and consuming power is very comfortable. User can recharge when needed. There is no such kind of energy meters used in our country wisely due to cost ineffectiveness. Here we have solution that Prepaid Energy Meter Using GSM.

DESCRIPTION:

This project includes GSM (Sim800c) module, which is connected to Arduino through UART interface. Energy Meter signal taped through optocoupler to Arduino digital IO pin. Energy Meter gives signal through LED while calculating wattage. In this project we are considering LED signal as unit. Energy Meter output load controlled through relay which is connected to Arduino through digital IO pin.

WORKING:

By default Arduino has some amount which is hard coded. When load ON power calculation starts and units will increase. For each unit one rupee amount will decrease. For every three units SMS will upload to mobile number through GSM (sim800c) module. If amount reach minimum then it will send notification SMS. User can recharge amount from mobile SMS.
