Abstract

Methods and apparatus for implementing a technique for measuring electricity consumption as shown in Figure 3. In general, in one aspect, the technique provides an electricity meter (302) that includes a sensor unit (102A) for measuring current and voltage of a distribution wire (307) of an electricity distribution system. The meter also includes a processor (104) electrically connected to receive input from the sensor unit, the processor calculating power consumed and generating messages that report the calculated power consumed. The meter also includes a radio transmitter electrically connected to receive and transmit the messages generated from the processor. The meter also includes a housing (200) for the sensor unit, the processor, and the radio transmitter.
