ABSTRACT

A Advance Metering infrastructure using zigbee is proposed for automatic meter data collection and energy auditing and management. Traditional meter reading for electricity consumption and billing is done by human operator from houses to houses and building to building. This requires huge number of labour operators and long working hour to achieve complete area data reading and billing..In order to achieve efficient meter reading, reduce billing error and operation costs, automatic meter reading (AMR) system play an important role to address the above mentioned problem.AMR is an effective mean of data collection that allow substantial saving through the reduction of meter re- read , greater data accuracy, improved billing and customer service. Digital energy meter offer greater convenience to implement and establish automatic meter readings systems electronically. Efficiency and reliability of retrieving meter reading in the AMR system was a major challenge. Various AMR methods and technologies using power line carrier(PLC ) communications, telephone modem , internet , Ethernet, embedded RF module , WiFi, bluetooth were Top of the document established and developed to provide and demonstrate the solution of efficiency reliability and effectiveness of AMR.The above mention methods are either too expensive to implement and operate ,required complex setup of infrastructure , sort operating distant and still require field intervention of human operators or prone to error. With the rapid development of ZIGBEE infrastructure and information communication technology (ICT) in the past few decades has made wireless automatic meter reading system more reliable and possible.
