Abstract :
Some States in India provide free electricity to farmers to run their motors and pumps for irrigation purpose. But it is found that the farmers are misusing the electricity to run their home appliances such as radio, TV, fans, etc. This misuse of electricity has brought a considerable loss for the Government. To avoid this problem a micro controller based embedded system is proposed. This proposed system recognizes whether the free electricity has been used other than electric motors for pumping water and if so electricity is being misused, it shuts the total supply for the farmers through a tripping circuit. By using wireless networks we can intimate the electricity board about these mal practices.
