Abstract

This paper deals with the implementation of power line network in the field of electricity billing. In present scenario the power line communication is one of the economical ways of communication of data. Even though there are new methods of wireless communication methods, practically it is very much time consuming to install such a system, and also it is highly cost consuming method .But the power lines which already exist and connect every household in a particular area is more advantageous as it does not require any new installation or erection for establishment of communication channel, and thus it is not a time consuming one. One biggest advantage of this system is that it can be readily implemented, unlike the other modern methods. The power line network can also be used for creating emergency response networks. This project eliminates the need for employing EB meter readers and this set of employees can be used elsewhere. The long queues in the billing counter can be avoided by implementing this model. Also the control of the system is fully automated by this technique. The most important feature in this system is the use of digital meters consisting of micro controllers and real time clock, thus eliminating the loss of meter data during power failure. . This paper makes the Indians to use the “Electricity” in an efficient way by introducing “Pre-paid electricity billing system” which alters a bit of our existing system .As our current system has a post paid billing system i.e., we have to pay our electricity bill based on our consumption. This post paid system doesn’t create any awareness to the customer though the electricity bill makes them shock and there is also a possibility of power theft, in addition to that we need a person from Electricity board to take reading at every month, for the payment of bill we have to stand in a queue and another way of payment is through online but it doesn’t reach more. In the Pre-paid system each house is incorporated with pre-paid card holder where each customer is provided with a smart card based on his need one have to recharge it which is similar to mobile recharge. This system creates a general awareness toutilize the power in an efficient manner. Thus in the Pre-paid system we have to monitor the number of units consumed by each customer by using power line carriermodem where transmission and reception of data occur in our existing power line and a modified Automatic meter reading .
