Abstract
This paper describes the development of a power measuring device (smart meter) capable of identifying the instantaneous running household loads and measurement of basic electric parameters. This real time basis load identification facility is exploited to estimate the load respective tariff for different Time-of-Use (TOU) of electricity for both the consumer and utility ends. The information regarding the 'ON' loads and their corresponding tariff helps the consumers to change their consumption patterns which in turn help the utility for better management of load demand. © 2015 IEEE.
