Ingenious System for Control of Multifunction Metering Using Graphical User Interface

Abstract

Abstract

Ingenious system for control of multifunction metering using graphical user interface is developed for monitoring electricity, water and gas consumption. Accurate billing is an important factor to manage household finances especially in difficult times. It is a tool that records amount of energy, water and gas used by a residence or Organizations. This system consists of Energy Metering IC module, Water flow sensor and Gas Detector at customer side. Prepaid services are concept of “First Pay and then use it” done using GSM module which sent SMS of low Balance Energy Meter, Water meter and Gas alert. Similarly using MATLAB Graphical User Interface, real-time readings of Energy Meter, Water meter and Gas alert are displayed on Graphical User Interface and LCD. This reduces wastage of Energy, Water and Gas and helps to keep a track on average domestic and commercial usage. A Relay system is used to shut down or disconnect energy meter and load through mains supply when recharge amount is zero.

Keywords: Energy metering IC, water flow sensor, gas sensor, ARM7, GSM, MATLAB GUI
