| Summary: | This project presents a system that allows for real time reading energy consumed in kWh and auto calculate the costs in Ringgit Malaysia (RM) for user's quick reference. Users also can retrieve the data through Global System for Mobile (GSM) technology for billing purposes once a month. The system is recommended to the electrical provider that is Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) to use GSM technology to enhance billing process with accurate cost consumed by the customer. This project allows for an effective data management which includes user's box meter and the SMS to both user and electrical department at the energy provider's side. This allows the user to keep alerts on their exact electricity units consumed and the real time costs direct from their box meter. So it becomes convenient for the user to control the electricity usage according to their monthly budget. This could help TNB reducing the cost to pay employees, while providing good service to consumers. The proposed system consists of a GSM modem connected to an Arduino it works continuously by monitoring the electrical pulses and calculates the unit consumption. |
