AMR for Electricity through Transmission Lines using PLCC

Abstract

inthis we have prepared Automatic Meter with using PIC microcontroller And Power line carrier communication in order to make Billing of the power consumption easy and provide a better communication between service provider and the user and we made power theft detecting and alerting system.The main purpose of implementing this project using PLCC is to reduce the man power, reduce the cost for taking meter reading, increase accuracy of the entire system along with theft detection and overload protection.When the IR Sensor is breached the signal is send to microcontroller. Then signal is sent through power line modem of the AMR at the house to the Power line Modem at MSCB’s Power line Modem which has information about the ID of the user and time of breached. The other output is given to the relay which cuts off the Power Supply of the user for certain time. The RTC is used to see the real time and all the accounts are handled by its time basis. The output of time meter reading and number of units burned is shown on LCD.
