Nowadays power cuts are happening in the peak usage timing such as from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM. This is happening because the power requirement in these times is very high as compare to other off-peak timings. Unnecessary usage must be avoided to eliminate this problem. In many countries electricity providers are implemented TOD based energy meter to reduce the usage of electricity by increasing rates in Peak hours and reducing rates is Off-peak hours. Time of Day metering (TOD), also known as Time of Usage (TOU) or Seasonal Time of Day (SToD), metering involves dividing the day, month and year into tariff slots and with higher rates at peak load periods and low tariff rates at off-peak load periods. While this can be used to automatically control usage on the part of the customer (resulting in automatic load control), it is often simply the customers responsibility to control his own usage, or pay accordingly (voluntary load control). This also allows the utilities to plan their transmission infrastructure appropriately.

How current coil is connected in energy meter?
It's connected in series with the load.
What do you mean by creeping in energy meter?
Creeping means in case of no load meter not generate any pulse or record no enengy in case of load is zero
What is working principle of electronic energy meter?
The working principle of an electronic energy meter is a device that measures the electronic energy consumed (usually in KWh). It is often incased in glass and has a disk that rotates that measures the amount of power (product of current and voltage) the flows through the meter. The rotation is then integrated over time either by mechanical dials or an electronic digital counter to determine the total energy used.To simplify reading, many modern ones also contain a type of radio transponder that can be interrogated remotely from the meter reader's vehicle so he/she no longer has to find, read, and write down the value on every meter on his route.
How do you Calibrate energy meter with the help of wattmeter and stop watch?
A watt is one joule per second - a joule is the SI unit of energy.
