Abstract: Now-a-days technology has developed to a large extend. At the same time the need for systems with automation and high security are preferred. An automatic energy meter reading (AMR) and load control system is presented in this paper. Conventional energy meter reading method for retrieving energy consumption and billing is a tedious process and cost of data logging systems is high. This requires huge labor and long working hour to achieve the reading process. Human billing are prone to reading errors and sometime in houses the electricity power meter is placed in location where it is not easily accessible, the billing will slowed down due bad weather conditions. AMR technology will automatically collects energy consumption data from energy meter and transfer that data to Electricity Board (EB) office by using wireless sensor networks (WSN).This system use LCD display to provide the meter reading, power cut, total load used and power disconnect information at customer side. This information is being sent and received by concerned energy Provider Company with the help of ZigBee network. It can also control loads with the help of relay circuit, when the demand for energy consumption goes high. This system not only reduces the labor cost but also increase energy meter reading accuracy and save huge amount of time.
