Abstract: Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) has be-come popular for smart meters in recent years due to its low cost installation and maintenance. However, it requires efficient and robust machine learning models to disaggregate the respective electrical appliance energy from the mains. This study investigated NILM in the form of direct point-to-point multiple and single target regression models using convolutional neural networks. Two model architectures have been utilized and compared using five different metrics on two benchmarking datasets (ENERTALK and REDD). The experimental results showed that multi-target disaggregation setting is more complex than single-target disaggregation. For multi-target setting of ENERTALK dataset, the highest individual F1-score is 95.37%and the overall average F1-score is 75.00%. Better results were obtained for the multi-target setting of the other dataset with higher overall average F1-score of 83.32%. Additionally, the robustness and knowledge transfer capability of the models through cross-appliance and cross-domain disaggregation was demonstrated by training for a specific appliance on a specific data, and testing for a different appliance, house and dataset. The proposed models can also disaggregate simultaneous operating appliances with higher F1-scores.
