CMS Solution for Prepaid Energy Billing System
The Distribution company in India faced a great problem for collecting revenue from domestic user of electricity. This is because of using old counter type meters, with out communication, human mistakes while taking reading of meters, thefts and lots more.
CMS has come to reduce this revenue loss by introducing pre-payment metering system.
Operation of Prepaid Energy Metering System:
- A card dispensing unit is located at suppliers office. This system reads/write data from the card and generate various reports useful for the management. In addition to this it will keep an account of all the transactions taking place at the dispensing Centre.
- CMS Make Pre-Paid Energy meters will be installed at each user's connection point.
- Personalized Smart Card will be issued to the consumer through the Card Dispensing unit.
- All further purchase of power will be on a prepaid basis
- The consumer can purchase power at any time and keep the meter charged ( this balance units will be displayed on the meter)
- The meter will give warning beeps when the balance reaches a threshold value.
- In case the balance power reaches zero the power supply will be automatically disconnected or grace power can be given as decided by Energy Suppliers.
- Supply can be restored by inserting a card charged by the Dispensing unit after payment.
