the energy meter. The main aim of this project is whenever u r recharging with some amount say example Rs.100/- by doing SMS to the MODEM‚ the bulb gets automatically ON until your recharge gets zero. After getting your balance zero your device gets automatically switched OFF and you will get a message from the MODEM that you have to recharge your mobile and the process takes place continuously.

SMART ENERGY METER A smart meter is usually an electrical meter that records consumption of electric energy in intervals of an hour or less and communicates that information at least daily back to the utility for monitoring and billing purposes. Smart meters enable two-way communication between the meter and the central system. Unlike home energy monitors‚ smart meters can gather data for remote reporting. Smart Meters" usually involve real-time or near real-time sensors‚ power outage notification

1. INTRODUCTION The sun is the largest source of renewable energy and this energy is abundantly available in all parts of the earth. It is in fact one of the best alternatives to the non-renewable sources of energy. Solar energy has been used since prehistoric times‚ but in a most primitive manner. Before 1970‚ some research and development was carried out in a few countries to exploit solar energy more efficiently‚ but most of this work remained mainly academic . After the dramatic rise in oil

What is responsible for raising Jim’s heart and respiratory rate and stimulating sweat just before the race? Homeostasis is the cause. Jim is nervous but he is making his body be calm so he doesn’t psych himself out. His nervous system sends signals to his heart. His respiratory rate increases. Since his heart is beating faster and respiratory rate increased this caused him to breathe more rapidly and his
