Contd.Contd.
We can set the meter to measure energy as often
we like. Has a power consumption of ~1W
Can be easily installed and no need for removingthe current meter .
To send the data automatically to the meteringcompany they should also have set up the meter.
Yet to be developed in Sri Lanka.

Tampering detectionTampering detection
Due to the increasing cost of electricity, energy
theft is becoming a major concern
A large portion of these revenue losses can berecovered by installing electronic energy meters
because they can detect tampering conditionsand assure proper billing.

Benefits & lossesBenefits & losses contdcontd
Losses
Considerably higher risk of been broken(may not be capable of using it for a long time)
There may not be replacements for each item ofthe unit so will have to replace the whole unit
(So may not be cost effective)
