Generally electronic energy meters are used to measure the consumed electrical energy in kilowatt-hour (kW·h). This is very simple task performed by an energy meter.
Therefore to make it more useful, various other features are added and the new energy meter is designed such that, in addition to the measuring consumed electrical energy in units, it can perform several other tasks such as:
It is found in recent surveys by electricity departments that 20-30% of energy is non-accountable due to transmission losses and energy pilferage or energy theft. Especially because of energy pilferage, all most all the electricity departments are facing so many problems. So, the Intelligent Electronic Energy Meter mainly aims to avoid energy pilferage through tampering the meter.
Because of all the above stated advantages or facilities, the Intelligent Electronic Energy Meter can serve both electricity departments and consumers. The electricity department is benefited, because this meter is designed to indicate or avoid tampering and consumers are benefited because overload or over-voltage protection circuits are incorporated in this system by which valuable household electrical gadgets can be protected from burning due to overloads and over-voltages.
- Measure the load current.
- Measure the line voltage.
- Display the measured consumed energy, load current and line voltage values in digital format.
- Protect the meter from burning out due to short circuit.
- Protect the household gadgets from burning out due to voltage fluctuations.
- Automatic retrieval of power supply to load when the conditions again become normal.
- Make the meter tamper proof.
