Popis: This paper present the design and implementation of a convenient, cashless, seamlessly automated and fully transparent electricity metering, billing and payment system. This system enables both electricity consumers and the utility company to remotely monitor electricity consumption. It also allows the customer to remotely pay or "recharge" his/her energy meter. The solution combines the power electronic meter with a communications network which in this case uses an RF Transceiver (Wi-Fi Module) and GSM network (SIM card attached). The system is effective and free of corruption since the consumption can be monitored remotely by the utility company and the consumers while being cross-checked with revenue earned.
