Abstract: Today the energy meter is placed in the domestic or commercial sites and collects the data of the energy consumed and displays it on either a number dial or digital display. At the end of every billing cycle the person from the service provider has to visit the place where the meter is placed to get the reading and to note it down for further bill generation. The present system of energy charge is fallible and also long. So the purpose of this project is to develop an energy meter which is used to measure the consumer’s power consumption in kWh but also enable and support real consumption and, so meter reader does not need to visit each customer for the consumed data collection and to distributed the bill slip. The energy consumption is calculated using the measurement of voltage and current. It also continuously reads the energy meter readings and automatically sends some updates like low-balance alert, zero-balance alert, recharge alert when necessary, to the registered number through GSM modem. Illegal usage of power is detected and alert message is sent to the authorities immediately. The calculations of power and energy are executed by Arduino programming and message will send to the corresponding consumer regarding units’ consumption and the bill amount .
