Abstract

AbstractVery often in Electricity board, there is a need to monitor the power consumption patterns of individual units due to power theft. Some rather minor factors can cause huge amounts of unnecessary power consumption, which often go unnoticed and incur huge expenses for Electricity board. This project aims at providing a system with which the power consumption of individual unit can be monitored and recorded from a central location.Keywords: Electricity, microcontroller, power, UART, ZigbeeCite this ArticleRaj Anantha Christu, Kumar D Aravind, Abraham V Sam et al.
