The invention provides an equipment fault intelligent monitoring method based on an event map technology. According to the method, the historical data and the current data can be learned, and the maintenance suggestions and the fault early warning are provided for equipment maintenance. The method comprises the steps of S10, constructing an event graph through the historical data analysis, the event graph comprises the event elements, and the event elements and the event elements form a network-shaped event graph through event relations, and the event element comprises a core node and an eventattribute; S20, comparing the current equipment state with event attributes in the event map, and matching the current equipment state with corresponding core nodes and event elements; S30, updatingthe event map in real time, and learning a new fault, a new state and a corresponding maintenance scheme of the equipment; S40, judging a current equipment fault condition according to the event element, analyzing an equipment fault generation reason, and giving a maintenance scheme; and S50, according to the relationship between the event elements in the event map, predicting faults which may occur to the current equipment, and giving out fault early warning.
