Atmega2560 used for meter control, monitoring functions
and communication. The software that been used in these
previous works was programmed in C ++ to read and send
SMS from Arduino to the communication between the
modem (SIM900) and controller.
The journal of previous work, written by Patrick
Mapulane, Tshepang Letshwiti, Mompati Molibe, and
Oagile Gaogane was proposed to develop Smart Meter
Energy using the Arduino ATMEGA328 as a process. The
methodology that been used in the previous work the smart
meter was using the Arduino as a microcontroller and uses
the GSM to send the notification to the consumer. The
reading of power consumption continued after all the
