3. INTRODUCTION
● Consumes more time, labour etc.
● Inaccurate.
● Slow, costly, and lack in flexibility and reliability.
So,GSM based energy meter is approached.
Present system of energy metering

4. Why GSM based energy meter?
● GSM based system.
● Recharge its balance using SMS.
● Disconnect power if not recharged.
● Reads the energy meter automatically.
● Send updates to user (low balance alert, cut off alert
and recharge alert).

8. ADVANTAGES
● High accuracy
● Tamper proof.
● Reduce financial risks.
● Better customer service.
● Improve operational efficiencies.

9. DISADVANTAGES
● Billing system fails if there is no GSM Network
coverage.
● Additional charge is required for network use.
● Requires fix GSM number.

10. FURTHER ENHANCEMENT
● Printed details of billing.
● Remote recharging using other wireless network.
● Use of dedicated software.

11. CONCLUSION
● By using this system there can be reduction in black
marketing of electricity.
● Due to automatic cut off of power of having no
balance , there would be proper payment of electric
bill in time.
