Abstract

The proposed system design eliminates the human involvement in electricity maintenance. Internet of things (IOT) is the network of physical objects or “things” embedded with electronic software, sensors and connectivity to enable objects to collect and exchange data.IOT based automatic meter reading, or AMR, is the technology of automatic collecting data energy meter and transferring the data to central data base for billing or analyzing. The internet is connected to meter and it counts the pulses from it and displays it over the LCD display. Also the current drawn by the load is calculated by current transformer which is connected in series with the load which will be displayed on the LCD. This data is then transmitted to the server unit at MSEB .The data is received by internet and it is displayed over the LCD. Whenever the key is pressed microcontroller will send sms through internet to transmitter to get the meter and current readings. The meter reading can be obtained at zero cost.
