Abstract :

The present major challenge facing our nation is the inability to supply the power demand. Preserving power is as important as producing power. Hence, the primary aim of the paper is to provide an efficient technique to preserve/ save power. The paper deals with the use of a psychological technique - if a person is aware of the energy consumption (in terms of capital), the person would certainly try to reduce the cost which in turn would reduce the power consumption. For this purpose, the paper proposes an Energy meter design which is used to display the cost and energy consumption of each and every port of the network i.e. (each and every switch in a room of a house). The above said design is implemented by making use of the applications of digital logic circuits. This also helps to avoid any fraudulent practice. For enhanced convenience, the system can be designed in such a manner that the user automatically gets updated with the power consumption in their mobile device with the use of GSM technology.

Keywords : Energy meter, Database, Sequence decoding, cost and time calculation.
