Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for enhanced electrical signature analysis (ESA) for fault detection in electrical machines. The enhanced ESA uses an algorithm that is able to adaptively learn the behavior of a particular electrical machine and automatically establish fault thresholds for the electrical machine without requiring manual inputs from an operator. The particular algorithm described herein to accomplish this may use machine learning that may be used to model the behavior of the electrical machine in real-time and based on any properties specific to the electrical machine.
