Energy conservation and its efficient utilization especially in cloud data centers has been a subject of discourse amongst numerous stakeholders. Advancement in information technology tools provides a solution to automating the process of electricity metering as well as remote load control alternatives. This paper presents an energy meter reader implemented with a microcontroller based logic methodology fused with a building automation system to implement remote load control by home owners using SMS from a GSM phone. A password based relay circuit was incorporated to ensure secure switching by the user. The system when deployed can enable users query and set energy consumption rates remotely so as to reduce the cost on final consumers as well as conserve energy. This is could be a useful system in the green-based design of cloud data centers.

The main objective of the project is to develop a GSM based energy meter reading system and load control through SMS. Electricity department sends employees to take meter reading every month, which is an expensive and time consuming job. The proposed project provides a convenient and efficient method to avoid this problem. The electricity department and the user can get the readings of the energy meter of consumers via SMS. The loads can also be controlled by the user of this system via SMS using this project. A microcontroller input is effectively interfaced to a digital energy meter that takes the reading from the energy meter and displays the same on an LCD. The reading of the energy meter is also sent to the control room by an SMS via SIM loaded GSM modem. This GSM modem can also receive commands from the cell phone to control the owner’s electrical loads. It uses a standard digital energy meter that delivers output pulses to the microcontroller to perform counting for necessary action. On receiving command it can switch ON/OFF the loads.

Now a day’s automation is in every field, although there are many places automation has been emerged and successfully implemented but still the service provider for energy still uses conventional methods for getting the energy consumed by individual customer. This method is very time consuming and un- economical and may lead to human error. Our proposed system (AMR) will automatically send the data of the digital energy meter to the service provider with the help the help of the GSM modem once in a day and hence the system will report the service provider once in a through SMS. The same system can be used to check the last reading consumed by the consumer, when demanded by user through the same GSM modem .The device can also be used to control the load from both the ends that is (user –service provider) with the help of relay circuit and system will also be provided with an LCD display which will update the consumers with different information’s regarding tariff change or sudden power cut .

In order to meet the efficiency and timeliness measurement requirements for electric energy meters with different specifications in gateway energy meter testing laboratory, a new testing system based on multithreading technique is proposed here. Through identifying the different wiring modes of electric meters, integrating with newly designed CT based on zero-flux compensation principle and applying creative multi-channel load control for different tap positions, the system can provide differentiated testing loads for different meters at the same time. Meanwhile, electric energy pulses required by different electric energy meters can be worked out by one standard meter. Consequently, completely independent measurement for different meters will be achieved with improved timeliness substantially. Through simulation tests for different electric energy meters, and comparison for calculated testing time, the initial design purposes are tested and verified.


The reading of energy meter is very tedious as well as an expensive job to do. The meter reading is taken manually by an individual to generate the bill, which will then passed into a software to automate billing and payment. A new network communication for the reading of energy meter by short message service (SMS) technology and software system besides the pre-existing energy meters. An Arduino will be integrated with the energy meter to read ad store the usage of energy. Energy meter gives the readings to Arduino and it sends it to the consumer via SMS. This is useful for the consumer to regularly check their power consumption and manage their energy usage according to their need and budget. The user can check their energy usage from anywhere by using their mobile phones an additional feature of load control is also provided to the user.
