This document presents a project on a prepaid energy meter using GSM. It consists of an introduction, block diagram, descriptions of the microcontroller, LCD display, GSM module, relays, and other components. The system uses an AT89S52 microcontroller to control relays connecting the load to the main power supply based on commands from an operator via GSM. It has advantages like accuracy, tamper proofing, and better customer service. Future enhancements could include a printer, remote recharging, and balance checking. The conclusion is that the project works satisfactorily in the lab and minor modifications could make it suitable for field use.
