The invention relates to a processing method for distribution network short circuit fault, in particular to a method for detecting the distribution network short circuit fault and restoring power supply in a non-broken-down section, and capable of achieving feeder line automatic local control. Short circuit fault detectors A (29) to M (41) are utilized for detecting the short circuit fault, and then reclosing time selection devices A (16), B (17), C (18) and D (19) are utilized for restoring power supply in the non-broken-down section. When short circuit happens, outlet switch A (1) or B (2) and C (2) protect the tripping in a relay way, and during permanent short circuit, the outlet switch A (1) or B (2) and C (3) protect the tripping of a second time in the relay way, a short circuit fault switch is pressed to achieve zero current tripping closedown, and a non-fault switch detects residual voltage cut-off and closedown for the second time. The outlet switch A (1) or B (2) and C (3) are coincided for the second time, so that the fault section is separated, the operation time limit of the non-fault switch is longer than the second reclosing time, three-phase normal voltage can be obtained, and the tripping no longer happens. As for the condition that the power is supplied by round network, one side of an interconnection switch (23) is deprived of electricity, non-fault switch for switching-on and tripping is delayed, and the voltage switching-on is detected in sequence.
