In the recent years the electricity has become a staple need and steep rise in the demand of electricity has been observed in household with use of different appliances, industries, hospitals and other consumers. An electricity meter is a device that measures the consumption of energy units.The conventional method of electric billing process requires human operators to collect the data by visiting the house of each consumers. This task of collection of data in conventional method of billing is tedious and cumbersome. Human errors are more prevalent to occur during this process of data collection. Consequently, this billing process requires a large working hours and human operators. The IOT based automation in billing process mitigates the trouble which arises in conventional billing process. In this process the consumption of units of energy is calculated through the pulses which are converted into energy units and further sends it to the server. The camera is installed in front of meter which captures the image and sends it to the server. The user by logging in the server using his unique ID and password can verify his consumption. This automatic billing process enhances the transparency in the billing process. It also reduces the mammoth working hours and decreases human intervention in billing process, thereby increases the accuracy.
