A smart meter in which the application designed to be able to perform two-way communication wirelessly between the meter unit with centralized units that differs from the conventional energy meter with functionality limited to measurement of total energy consumption without being able to provide any information of energy usage to the user. The issue of untracked electricity usage during the one-month period make the system vulnerable to power theft, power misused and overconsumption without prior notice to the user. The system is developed using suitable controller board and sensors to allow the system integration with conventional meter providing the smart meter functionality. The objective of the project is to design a smart meter which provide user with wireless energy monitoring functionality with the use of the Telegram bot application. © 2018 Institution of Engineering and Technology.
