1. An apparatus for detecting faults of components monitored by a building management system (BMS), the apparatus comprising:

  • an automatic fault detection (AFD) element, coupled to the BMS, configured to monitor, in real time, data samples generated by the BMS indicating operative states of the components, and configured to employ said data samples to determine if one or more of the components are faulty, said AFD element comprising;

    a run time modeling element, configured employ said data samples as inputs to execute one or more fault algorithms retrieved from a system configuration model, and configured to generate outputs to said one or more fault algorithms that indicate if said one or more of the components are faulty; and

    a fault detection algorithm element, coupled to said system configuration model, configured to employ normalized and standardized datapoints representing said data samples to automatically select said one or more fault algorithms for storage in said system configuration model, wherein said one or more fault algorithms are selected from a standard fault algorithm data base.
