ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which describes the specific terms of
the bonds we are offering and certain other matters about us and our financial condition. The second part, the
base prospectus, provides general information about the first mortgage bonds and other securities that we may
offer from time to time, some of which may not apply to the bonds we are offering hereby. Generally, when we
refer to the prospectus, we are referring to both parts of this document combined. If the description of the bonds
varies between this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus, you should rely on the
information in this prospectus supplement.
References in this prospectus to "Southern California Edison," "we," "us," and "our" mean Southern California
Edison Company, a California corporation. In this prospectus, we refer to our First and Refunding Mortgage
Bonds, Series 2009A and Series 2009B, which are offered hereby, as the "bonds." We refer to all of our
outstanding First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds as our "first mortgage bonds."

"estimates," "projects," "intends," "plans," "probable," "may," "will," "could," "would," "should," and
variations of such words and similar expressions, or discussions of strategy or of plans, are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Such statements necessarily involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual

in light of current credit conditions in the capital markets;

SUMMARY
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by and should be read together with the more detailed
information and audited financial statements, including the related notes, contained or incorporated by reference
in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus.

Southern California Edison Company
Southern California Edison is an investor-owned electric utility company, providing retail electric service to
more than 4.6 million business and residential customers over a 50,000 square mile service area in coastal,
central, and southern California, excluding the City of Los Angeles and certain other cities. We own and operate
transmission and distribution facilities and hydroelectric, coal, natural gas, and nuclear power plants for the
purpose of serving our customers' electricity needs. In addition to power provided from our own generating
resources, we procure power through long-term contracts from a variety of sources including other utilities,
merchant generators, and other non-utility generators, including qualifying facilities. Our customers also receive
power purchased on their behalf through contracts signed by the California Department of Water Resources.
Based in Rosemead, California, Southern California Edison was incorporated in California in 1909, and had
assets of $32.6 billion as of December 31, 2008.
Southern California Edison is a subsidiary of Edison International, a holding company with subsidiaries involved
in both electric utility and non-electric utility businesses. The mailing address and telephone number of our
principal executive offices are P.O. Box 800, Rosemead, CA 91770 and (626) 302-1212.

Recent Developments
On March 17, 2009, we entered into a credit agreement with several lenders. The agreement provides for a $500
million 364-day revolving credit facility. We expect to use the additional liquidity provided by the facility to
support power procurement activities.
