As a part of measure to make electricity accessible to every Indian, to overcome the problem of overbilling,meter tempering and to ensure a cost effective operation, we have introduced the Prepaid Electricity System. The userreceives message on their mobile phones about the units they purchased via GSM technology. Mikro C PRO for PICsoftware is used for controller programming and Proteus is used for simulation purposes. The data was sent through theserial ports to the user energy meter. The PIC microcontroller detected how much units the user have purchased and therelay was switched accordingly. When the units purchased became equal to the units consumed, the relay performed itsfunction by switching off the electricity system. The warning message was sent to user mobile through GSM technologybefore the disconnection of electricity. Hardware model is also designed using GSM module. The theft detection ofelectricity also became possible by using this system through which server received the message when users by passedthe meter.
