Field studies have demonstrated that the non-intrusive load monitor (NILM) can effectively evaluate the state of many electromechanical systems by analysing the electrical power that they draw. This paper discusses NILM applications in the marine environment. Machinery power data collected from a 270-foot US coast guard cutter USCGC SENECA indicates that the NILM can successfully diagnose the failure of flexible couplings and the presence of leaks in cycling systems. The paper discusses both these shipboard problems and details the methodology used to develop the metrics that diagnose them.
