Project Synopsis - 1.3

This project aims to create an IoT based power management system to automatically monitor electricity consumption, generate bills, and control power connections without manual visits. Sensors will detect electricity usage which a microcontroller will count and communicate via PLC to a control room to remotely send bills and cut/restore power. The system uses sensors, a microcontroller, display, EEPROM storage, solid state relays, communication ICs, and a PLC modem to remotely manage electricity distribution and billing. It allows real-time monitoring, automatic control, and electricity savings by reducing manual labor and accidental wastage. Potential issues include common wireless and power line communication problems in crowded environments.

PROJECT SYNOPSIS

INTRODUCTION:

In our day-to-day life, the electricity billing needs one KEB person to visit each and every house
to check how much unit they have consumed, and then provide the electricity as per
consumption .

In case the authorized person of the house, didn’t pay the bill, then again one KEB person have
to visit and cut the electric supply and again to do the connection when bill get paid. Also if the
Person has accidently left the electrical equipment or devices switched on, in his absence there
will be waste of energy.

Objective

Objective of this project is to overcome the above mentioned problem so that there would not be
any necessity to visit each and every house, instead KEB authorized person can send monthly
electricity bill to the authorized person, also cut off/on the electric supply of the house and also
achieve the load shedding from this office itself.

Working principle:

Project describes the automatic electricity billing system. Here we used an IR sensor, which is
placed near the electricity measuring instrument. This sensor will sense the rotation of the wheel
in the electricity instrument and generates the pulses, which will be read by the microcontroller
which further count the pulses and it also watches a message from PLC module. If there is any
message from PLC, microcontroller processes the information according to program and it will
trip OFF or trip ON a solid state relay and also send the appropriate messages.

Components used

IR Sensor: This sensor will sense if any abstract pass through that sensor path and this sensor
operate in very low voltage, means power consumption is very low.

PROJECT SYNOPSIS

Preamplifier: The output of sensor is given to the pre-amplifier for adding extra strength to the
signals because the output of sensor cannot drive any circuit directly. So this section is used to
amplify the weak signals and converting it into strong one.

µC Unit: – Microcontroller work according to the program given to it, here we have used as an
ARM LPC2148 microcontroller.

Display (16x2 LCD): This will display the units and count of the wheel is rotating in analog
meter. And also display the appropriate electricity bill.

I2C EEPROM: It is a two wire serial data (SDA) and serial clock (SCL), carry information
between the devices connected to the bus. Each device is recognized by a unique address. Here
In this project we are using I2CEEPROM, using this we can store the updated data in the
Microcontroller because whenever there is power off, microcontroller memory is lost, to avoid
this I2CEEPROM is used and that memory power is controlled by CMOS battery.

Solid state relay: This relay does not contain any coil, spring, or mechanical contact switch and
the entire relay is made up of semiconductor material because of this, their switching response
time is much faster than that of electromagnetic relay. We can use this solid state relay to trip on
and trip off the electricity.

MAX 232 IC: This unit has MAX 232 IC, which is used to communicate between
microcontroller unit and the GSM modem. It transfers the data to GSM & from the µ-controller
unit. This unit converts microcontrollers TTL signals into RS232 signal type as the GSM modem
needs RS232 signals.

PLC Module: The is a self-contained Hardware System On Module (SOM) for Power Line
Communication, including the Analog Front End and the digital Modem on one single PCB. It is
the ideal plug-in tool for developers willing to easily and quickly evaluate the most popular
narrowband power line communication standards like PRIME/G3/P1901.2 in their application
environment. Granted developers bring up the high voltage coupling, the SOM easily plugs into
the application with standard communication ports (UART, SPI, I2C, CAN) via a connector
header interface. The SOM Module also plugs into the TI data concentrator reference design and
