In this article, a data-based Cauchy distribution weighting M-estimate RVFLNs method is proposed for short-circuit fault detection in distribution networks. The proposed method detects short circuits based on current and voltage measurements. In addition, noises were added to the data to ensure the robustness of the method. The performance of the method was examined in the RTDS RTS simulator using the IEEE 33-bus-bar system model with the help of real-time simulations. The success rate of the proposed method is between 98% and 100% for low-impedance (0 ohm) short-circuit faults, depending on the fault type. The success rate of high-impedance (100 ohm) short-circuit faults, which are more difficult to detect, is between 80% and 92%, depending on the fault type.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRVFLNRobust RVFLNCauchy-M estimateIEEE 33-bus modelArticle161118WOS:0009089904000012-s2.0-8514566352010.3390/en16010252Q1N/A
