One cannot imagine life without electricity, as it is one’s prime requirement. Thus there is a high need of not only efficient generation and transmission of electricity but the way it is being used and measured at the time of billing. As per the current scenario, manpower is required to collect data from meter reading and accordingly bill is being generated. As there is an involvement of human, it can be erroneous. Likewise human is involved in cutting the power line if the bill is due or unpaid by the consumer which could be hazardous and risky. Not only this, a quite good amount is paid for such task every month which is a waste of money. Thus the present methodology needs to be converted into an intelligent and efficient mechanism which would benefit both the ends i.e. the base station and the consumer. In this paper a wireless method is proposed which puts emphasis on Intelligent Energy meter (IEM) reading and bill generation using Arduino Mega and Ethernet Shield. The monthly generated bill will be sent to the consumer through SMS using GSM900 and power of unpaid consumers would be disconnected using a relay which would be controlled wirelessly using the concept of Internet of things (IOT).
