A Novel Smart Monitoring and Metering System for Transmission and Distribution Network

The main objective of the paper is to reduce the losses in the transmission system, make more reliable and flexibility in the topology network, increase efficiency, sustainability, compensation, market enabling, demand response support and a platform for advance in services. The computer also calculates the power that is misused. It can be implemented to retrieve and record energy consumption data in real time and send the data with tariff to the electricity board and the consumer mobile through GSM and Zigbee module. The time to go to the consumer side and time to read the meter manually can be curtailed. The imbalance is checked by the computers intelligence and power used illegally is detected and is corrective measure is taken from the control centre. In addition, the prototype designed aims to monitor the consumption records, send it periodically to the server to update to the relevant user profile, provide feedback alerts to the consumer on demand and also provide a better control to utility over individual user. With this proposed methodology, the end users are provided with proper awareness and they may plan their electrical consumption pattern.
