In order to introduce remote monitoring system for effective safety management of electrical facilities for general use, which the most of electrical fires and non-inspection problems due to absence are generated development of local device model considering cost and installation is requested. This paper presents local device models for remote electrical safety inspection of electrical facilities for general use and in order to rational model according to installation place of electrical facilities for general use, compare and analysis cost, installation and communication method of local device models. The results show that rational model for remote safety inspection of electrical facilities located in houses, which occupy the must of electrical facilities for general use, is to give safety monitoring ability to low voltage remote meter reading(or automatic meter reading: AMR).

Due to the reinforcement of government's DSM(Demand Side Management) policy. Solid State Meter was introduced in Korea since 1993 and it is applied to the high voltage customer exceeding 100kW in order to equalize daily load curve. In recent days, KEPCO has a Plan to use the Solid State Meter which has a data recording and remote meter-reading function for low voltage customer to introduce the real-time pricing system and reduce peak power in the near future. So, this paper suggests the specification and function of Solid State Meter.

In this paper, the efficient prevention of cross talk technique for basically avoiding the confusion problem between the overlapped ubiquitous network of the other object is developed within the same area. The intelligent unified wireless network remote meter reading system of the ubiquitous ZigBee base is developed based on this technology. Therefore, in this paper, each meter reading equipments managed the information of its own adjacent ZigBee channel. The intelligent network system steadily transmitting data a relay was developed based upon this information in each region through the flexible channel conversion technique.

As the meter reading method of gas meters develops, smart gas meters capable of remote meter reading (leak checking meters and multi-function safety meters) are being used. These meters have a function to judge leakage by utilizing the flow rate and pressure data collected as an additional function. Leakage judgment function using flow rate data has valid cases in the actual field, but the pressure data-based leakage judgment standard is based on not only the pressure value change due to leakage but also various factors (pressure regulator pressure, connection with adjacent meters, usage of adjacent houses, location of meters, etc.). There is a problem with pressure magnitude changes (levels). In this paper, as a technique that can judge leaks by using pressure data collected from smart gas meters, it was developed through preprocessing of pressure data, criteria for pressure value ranges related to leaks, leak judgment techniques, and application case verification.

This paper develops an ADWHM(Advanced Digital Watt Hour Meter) based on RISK type'8bit micro-controller, which has voltage management data recording function, load management data recording function as well as the existing watt-hour data recording data function. It can enhance greatly the economics of the existing remote meter reading system. Also it can improve highly the quality of power supplied to the electric customer by minimizing the voltage management cost and by enhancing the efficiency of load management.

This paper implement Remote Meter Reading System which is used Bluetooth and SMS in CDMA. This System propose system which tan detect a total amount of gas, electricity or water without a meterman, at home BlueTooth is a close range wireless communication technology which uses a wireless frequency 2.4GHz and has a high trust and self error correction technology according to a low power consumption quality and a high-speed frequency hopping. This makes get a high trust concerning a data transmission than an existing modem. In addition, though wireless modem is restricted by a minimal of a wireless terminal, it will be possible to coincide with the function of the portable with the low power consumption quality by using Bluetooth. And as the system on a chip of module progresses, the possibility of the small size is present. Nowadays, SMS Protocol in CDMA for have a network function based on PPP in CDMA Phone. The proposed Remote Meter Reading System to get more nobility, efficiency, and have good function. SMS Protocol in CDMA have profits which is low power, low cost, and low microwave output.

KEPCO installed AMI (Advanced Metering Infrastructure) metering system for low-voltage customers from 2008. AMI metering system of KEPCO has operated 2.55 million customers and will plan to operate 22 million customers until 2020. KEPCO developed AMI NMS (Network Management System) to operate the meter reading network efficiently. NMS monitors the network status of DCUs (Data Concentration Unit) and modems. NMS provides functionalities of data collection and analysis. It collects property data of network device, network topology information, communication performance information, fault information, and etc. It analyzes collected data and controls network devices by remote access. AMI NMS collects about 370 MIBs (Mangement Information Bases) using SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). This paper introduces main functionalities, designed context, and implemented service screen.

To determine the critical level for optimum maturity of flue-cured tobacco leaves (KF118) at the stalk position from cutter to tips, the reflectance index using ground-based remote sensors and chlorophyll meter were investigated. The sensors estimated were Crop $Circle^{TM}$ (Holland Scientific), Green $Seeker^{TM}$ (Ntech Industries), Spectroradiometer (LICOR, LI-1800), Chlorophyll meter (SPAD502, Minolta), and Field $Scout^{TM}$ Chlorophyll meter (CM-1000, Spectrum). The L, a, b values and greenness for flue-cured leaf were measured and estimated for correlation with sensor's measurement of harvested leaf. On a reflectance curve of 340nm~1100 nm, the reflectance peaks on 550nm and 675 nm for the harvested leaf were lowered as change from light green to darker green. Darker green leaf harvested produced darker flue-cured leaf. The reflectance at 675 nm for flue-cured leaf decreased as greenness increased in the harvested leaf. This result means that the red edge band of 675 nm wavelength is related to the absorbance of chlorophyll for photosynthesis. The greenness of flue-cured leaf showed significantly positive correlation with the entire reflectance indexes for harvested leaf while the L value by colorimeter showed negative correlation with greenness of cured leaf. The critical level for optimum maturity of harvested leaf were less than 22, 135, and 0.43 for SPAD reading, CM-1000 reading, and gNDVI by Crop $Circle^{TM}$, respectively. Consequently, ground-based remote sensing providing a non-destructive real-time assessment of plant greenness could be a useful tool in the selection of optimum maturity of flue-cured tobacco leaves in relation to high quality of flue-cured tobacco.

AMR(Automatic Meter Reading) and RC(Remote Control) System have been researched from former several decade for a various power rate system, a efficient power service and rising of personal expenses, etc. But the existing AMR and RC System have disadvantage which are complex and high cost to install an individual communication network of electricity company. This paper proposed a new type of AMR and RC System using PLC with Web. and made components for proposal system. Most customer who live in apartment have an internet cable in the Republic of Korea. Therefore there is no more installation component for communication in proposal system at the apartment, except Web server system and PLC modem. so we made the PLC modem the digital watt-hour meter with a build in PLC modem and the software on server computer for establishing the proposal system.
