Abstract
A STS (System Transfer Specification) energy meter with an embedded solution for two-way communications over Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), was designed and simulated with Proteus. This meter should be able to report any tampering attempt on the customer’s meter, by sending an SMS (Short Message Service) via Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) as regards energy theft from the point of theft to an automated meter management station. Every meter is part of an automated metering management network, which is a scaled down version of a conventional Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). This research provides an additional capability to STS energy Meters. The additional two-way communications capability of the Energy Meter is implemented with the addition of a GSM module to a conventional STS meter. The additional functionality to the STS meter real-time reporting was achieved by adding a GSM module to its design.
