PENGISIAN TOKEN LISTRIK PADA KWH PRABAYAR BERBASIS SMARTPHONE

Abstract

Currently, there are 2 types of tools issued by the state electricity company (PLN) prepaid and postpaid to measure how much power consumers use. The electricity bill payment process for prepaid customers is different from that for postpaid customers. Postpaid customers pay the electricity bill they use in units of months while prepaid customers pay bills according to the customer's daily usage. most new customers choose a prepaid kwh meter because it is easier and the display of electricity usage in units of day can be seen on the LCD display that is already listed on the kwh meter. Because prepaid customers use electricity in the hours they use, the electricity token on prepaid kwh may not be in In a total empty state, it is necessary to fill in an electricity token for the customer if the buzzer on the kwh has rang. Usually, prepaid pln customers buy electricity tokens at counters that have collaborated with pln providers for refills. inputting 20 digit numbers that have been purchased. This requires more time and energy, especially if the location of the prepaid kwh meter is high. The purpose of this final task is how to make it easier to fill in electricity tokens on the prepaid kwh meter with the help of a smartphone that has been integrated with the wifi network using the wifi module esp32 and mic Arduino controller as input data processing 20 digit numbers that will be input to the kWh meter.                .
