The novel approach is a centralized system that is being fed by the captured data obtained from various energy meters. The environmental variables like pressure, moisture, temperature also needs to be captured along with the energy for better control of the situation. In this article, temperature sensor communicates to the connected smart meter [1]. The temperature readings will be transferred along with the energy readings to the centralized system for further action in order to avoid the accidents in power plants, sub stations etc. The necessary operations are simulated using the IAR Embedded Workbench and controlled using microcontroller [11]. Since the energy meters already exist in power plants to measure the generated power, there is no need to establish a separate network to sense the temperature. So the existing network connection is used, thereby reducing the cost.
