Analysis of Charging Load Acceptance Capacity of Electric Vehicles in the Residential Distribution Network
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This paper analyzes acceptance capacity of the charging load of the distribution network on typical weekdays and weekends. By establishing an optimized mathematical model for the analysis of the charging load acceptance capacity, and taking the voltage of each node of the distribution network and the capacity of the distribution lines and transformer as constraints, the particle swarm optimization algorithm is employed to solve the maximum acceptance capacity considering the charging characteristics of EVs. The paper is well presented and is interesting for readers.
The following are my suggestions:
1)English can be polished.
2) Fig.9 is better presented in colour.
3) Reference format should be in uniform.
4) Please decribe how to use PSO algorithm in this paper.

Reviewer 2 Report
Based on the characteristics of the EVs charging load of residential areas in typical day and the size of the target annual charging load, this paper analyzed the acceptance capacity of the charging load of the reidential distribution network on typical weekdays and weekends. This research work is valuable to the development of EVs in China. Some minor eorrors needs to be revised.
(1) The label of the tables and figures in the results requires futher revirion.
(2) Variables used in the formulas in the paper need to be clearly described.

Reviewer 3 Report
This manuscript focuses on the maximum acceptance capacity of the charging load of the distribution. The results of mathematical modeling are presented. However, there are many significant disadvantages:
1. Abstract is a mess. Must be better worded. The benefits and advantages of this research should be stated.
2. In the Introduction section, you should show in more detail how your study differs from previously published and cited studies, how your study adds to this field of research.
3. More detailed information about the used mathematical model should be provided, indicating according to which criteria this model is optimized, how the model and the actual residential distribution network are connected.
4. More detailed information about the medium and tools used for the simulation should be provided.
5. Section Conclusion does not meet the requirements. This is more of a summary of the article than a conclusion. Must be substantially rewritten.
