Abstract: India is currently witnessing a revolution in the field of electricity metering, where electronic energy meters are fast replacing the conventional Ferraris meters. Energy metering is essential at all places where electricity is consumed, i.e. at homes, offices, shops, farms, workshops, factories, etc. Nowadays the wastage of energy is increased due to unawareness of energy usage. So there is a need of real time energy monitoring equipment which helps the consumers to know about how much energy they had used and what the cost of energy usage. Smart energy meter give you greater insight into how much energy we use compared with standard energy meter. With this knowledge, we can take positive steps to save more of energy at home. They help to make informed discussions about the energy we use. This can have a positive impact on our level of consumption and on the amount of money we spent.
