This document proposes the design of an energy meter reading system using GSM that allows remote monitoring and control. It aims to address irregularities in traditional meter reading like human errors in billing and energy theft. The system uses a microcontroller connected to an energy meter, GSM modem, LCD display and relay. The microcontroller can remotely obtain meter readings via GSM, control loads by switching the relay, and disconnect power in case of theft. This allows utilities to monitor usage without physical visits and reduces revenue losses.

3. OBJECTIVE:
The measurement of the energy consumed by residential and commercial buildings by
utility provider is important in billing, control and monitoring of the usage of energy.
Traditional metering techniques used for the measurement of energy are not convenient
and is prone to different forms of irregularities.
These irregularities include inaccuracies in billing due to human error, energy theft,
loss of revenue due to unwanted usage of power and so on.
This research study proposed the design and construction of a microcontroller based
electric energy metering system using the Global System for Mobile communication
(GSM) network.
So here we are designing this system which provides solution to the irregularities posed
by the traditional metering technique by allowing the utility provider have access to
remote monitoring capabilities, full control over consumer load, and remote power
disconnection in the case of energy theft.

4. INTRODUCTION:
The technology of e-metering(Electronic metering) has gone through rapid
Technological advancements and there is increased demand for a reliable and efficient
Automatic Meter Reading(AMR) system.
This project is aimed to design of a simple low cost wireless GSM energy meter and its
associated web interface, for automating billing and managing the collected data
globally.
The proposed system replaces traditional meter reading methods and enables remote
access of energy provider.
Also they can monitor readings regularly without the person visiting each house.
A GSM based wireless communication module is integrated with electronic energy
meter of each entity to have remote access over the usage of electricity.

5. EXISTING SYSTEM:
Now a days energy meter reading premise and takes the reading manually
then issues the bill.
In manually human error possible and not provide reliable meter reading.
An energy meter is a device which is used to measure the consumption of
energy of any residence or other industrial establishment.
In conventional metering system to measure electricity consumption the
energy provider company hire a person who visit each house and record
the reading manually.

6. PROPOSED SYSTEM:
In this system to explore the new possibilities for the next generation
Automatic meter reading whose goal is to collect the meter reading
automatically through GSM interface.
Automation ranges from connecting meter through an MAX232 interface
to GSM module for transmitting the meter measurements.
Where in this system we are not only measuring the meter but also
through GSM we can control the load and reduce usage of the current in
our houses.

9. PRINCIPLEAND WORKING:
Power meter reading mainly works on the principle of GSM.
 A GSM modem provides the communication interface. It transports device protocols
transparently over the network through a serial interface.
A GSM modem is a wireless modem that works with a GSM wireless network. This
GSM Modem can accept any GSM network operator SIM card and act just like a
mobile phone with its own unique phone number.
The process of energy meter reading with load controlling basically starts with an
observation of load which is connected to the meter in the form of units.
In this process we use Relay to ON/OFF the load.
Once the load is ON using the relay, then Microcontroller determines whether the
load units are crossed/power cutting off due to no payment/power theft.
Then above information would be shared to the LCD using GSM principle.

1. POWER SUPPLY
2. Microcontroller AT89S52
3. GSM
4. LCD
5. RELAY
6. MAX232
7. Energy Meter

11. MICRO CONTROLLER (AT89S52):
The AT89s52 is a low-voltage, high-performance CMOS 8-
bit microcomputer with 8K bytes of Flash programmable
memory.
The device is manufactured using Atmel's high density
nonvolatile memory technology and is compatible with the
industry-standard MCS-51 instruction set.
The on chip flash allows the program memory to be
reprogrammed in system or by a conventional non volatile
memory programmer. By combining a versatile 8-bit CPU
with Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT89s52 is a
powerful microcomputer.
which provides a highly flexible and cost-effective solution
to manyembedded control applications.

12. POWER SUPPLY:
The power supplies are designed to convert high voltage AC mains electricity to a
suitable low voltage supply for electronic circuits and other devices.
A power supply can by broken down into a series of blocks, each of whichperforms a
particular function.
A DC power supply which maintains the output voltage constant irrespective of
ACmains fluctuations or load variations is known as "Regulated DC Power Supply".
The 5V regulated power supply system as shown below

13. GSM-Global System for Mobile communication
• The term GSM usually means the GSM standard and
protocols in the frequency spectrum around 900MHZ/
850/1800/1900MHZ.
• Which can be used not only to access the internet, but also
fororal communication and for SMS.
• A GSM modem is a specialized type modem which
accepts a sim card and operates over a subscription to a
mobile operator like mobile phone.

14. ENERGYMETER:
An electricity meter, electric meter, electrical meter, or
energy meter is a device that measures the amount of
electric energy consumed by a residence, a business, or
an electrically powered device.
Electric utilities use electric meters installed at
customers' premises to measure electric energy delivered
to their customers for billing purposes.
Electric meters are typically calibrated in billing units,
the most common one being the kilowatt hour.

15. MAX232:
The MAX232 is an integrated circuit that
converts signals from an RS-232 serial port to
signals suitable for use in TTL compatible
digital logic circuits.
The MAX232 is a dual driver/ receiver and
typically converts the RX, TX, CTS and RTS
signals.
When a MAX232 IC receives a TTL level to
convert, it changes a TTL level to convert, it
changes a TTL Logic 0 to between +3
and+15v, and changes TTL Logic 1 to
between -3 to -15v, and vice versa for
converting from RS232 to TTL.

16. RELAY:
Relays are simple switches which are operated both
electrically and mechanically. Relays consist of an
electromagnet and also a set of contacts.
The switching mechanism is carried out with the help of
the electromagnet.
There are also other operating principles for its working.
But they differ according to their applications. Most of
the devices have the application of relays.
The power source is given to the electromagnet through a
control switch and through contacts to the load.When
current starts flowing through the control coil, the
electromagnet starts energizing and than intensifies
the magnetic field.

17. LIQUID CRYSTALDISPLAY(LCD):
Liquid crystal displays (LCD s) have
materials which combine the properties
of both liquids and crystals.
Most common LCDs connected to the
microcontroller is 16*2.
This means 16 characters
per line by 2 lines.
LEDs have a large and varying set of
use cases for consumers and businesses,
as they can be commonly found in
smartphones, televisions, computer
monitors and instrument panels.

by the Lab center electronic. By using proteus you can make two-dimensional circuits
designs as well.
Proteus software is an open source software.
Proteus is easy to use suite of tools for professional PCB design.

21. EMBEDDED C:
Embedded C is a set of language extensions for the C programming language by the C
standards.
Embedded C programming requires non standard extensions to the C language in the
order to support exotic features such as fixed point, arithmetic, multiple distance
memory banks and basic input output operation.
It includes number of features not available in normal C.

22. ADVANTAGES:
