At equilibrium, a system may still undergo slow fluctuations with time, especially if it has slow internal degrees of freedom -- but key properties should no longer show systematic trends away from their starting structure.

Thus, for example, for biomolecular simulations it is common to examine the root mean squared deviation (RMSD) of the molecules involved as a function of time, and potentially other properties like the number of hydrogen bonds between the biomolecules present and water, as these may be slower to equilibrate than system-wide properties like the temperature and pressure.

\caption{For some system properties, equilibration may be relatively rapid (top panel), while for others it may be much slower (bottom panel). If it there is ambiguity as to whether or not a key property is still systematically changing, as in the bottom panel, equilibration should be extended.}

Once the kinetic and potential energies fluctuate around constant values and other key properties are no longer changing with time, the equilibration period has reached its end.

Depending on the target ensemble for production, the procedure for the end of equilibration is somewhat different.
