such redemption, at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, prior to the date fixed for redemption to the
holder of each Bond called for redemption at the holder's last address shown on the registry books of the

principal of outstanding Bonds from time to time endorsed thereon and the aggregate principal amount of

exchanges and redemptions.  Any endorsement of a Global Bond certificate to reflect the amount of any increase or
decrease in the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Bonds represented thereby shall be made by BNY Midwest

its customary procedures).

                  When Certificated Bonds are presented to the Bond Registrar with a request to register the
transfer of the Certificated Bonds or to exchange such Certificated Bonds for an equal principal amount of
Certificated Bonds of other authorized denominations, the Bond Registrar shall register the transfer or make the
exchange as requested if its requirements for such transactions are met.

                                                      PART IX

                  In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplemental Indenture should be
invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not

         SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY, a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws
of the State of California (hereinafter called the "Company"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
_________________________,

Page 3

the registered owner hereof, the principal sum of $_______________ on January 15, 2016, and to pay
interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof to the registered owner hereof from January 19, 2005, until said
principal sum shall be paid, at the rate of 5.0% per annum, payable semiannually on January 15 and July 15 in
each year.  Such interest shall be paid to the person in whose name this Bond is registered at the close of
business on (1) the business day immediately preceding the interest payment date if this Bond is in book-entry
only form, or (2) the 15th calendar day before each interest payment date if this Bond is not in book-entry only
form.

         The principal of and interest on this Bond are payable at the offices of The Bank of New York, as
Trustee, in New York, New York, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company, in such
coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private
debts.

         This Bond is one of a series, designated as "Series 2005A, Due 2016," of a duly authorized issue of
bonds of the Company, known as its "First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds," issued and to be issued in one or more
series under and all equally and ratably secured by a Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 1923, and indentures
supplemental thereto, including the One Hundred Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of January 11, 2005, which
have been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New York and D. G. Donovan, or
one of their predecessors, as Trustees, to which original indenture and indentures supplemental thereto
(collectively, the "Trust Indenture") reference is hereby made for a description of the property, rights and
franchises thereby mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security thereby created, the rights of
the holders of this Bond and of the Trustees in respect of such security, and the terms, restrictions and
conditions upon which the bonds are issued and secured.

         This Bond may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time prior to its
maturity, after notice given in writing (including by facsimile transmission) to the registered owner hereof at
the last address shown on the registry books of the Company, by the Company or The Bank of New York, as Trustee,
at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the date fixed for redemption, at a redemption price equal to
the greater of (1) the principal amount redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
payments of principal and interest on this Bond being redeemed, discounted to the date fixed for redemption on a
semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Yield plus 15
basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption.

         "Treasury Yield" means, for any date fixed for redemption, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual
equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the date fixed for
redemption.

Page 4

         "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an
Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term to
stated maturity of this Bond that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary
financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining
term of this Bond.

         "Comparable Treasury Price" means, for any date fixed for redemption, (1) the average of the bid and
asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount)
on the third business day preceding the date fixed for redemption, as set forth in the daily statistical release
(or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated "Composite 3:30 p.m.
Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" or (2) if that release (or any successor release) is not published or
does not contain those prices on that business day, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations
for the date fixed for redemption, or (B) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all of the Quotations.

         "Independent Investment Banker" means Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Citigroup") or its successor or,
if such firm or its successor is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, one of the
remaining Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by The Bank of New York, as Trustee, after consultation with the
Company.

         "Reference Treasury Dealer" means (1) Citigroup, Credit Suisse First Boston LLC ("CSFB"), and J.P.
Morgan Securities Inc. ("JPMorgan") and any other primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a
"Primary Treasury Dealer") designated by, and not affiliated with Citigroup, CSFB, or JPMorgan or their
successors, provided, however, that if Citigroup, CSFB, or JPMorgan, or any of their designees, ceases to be a
Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will appoint another Primary Treasury Dealer as a substitute, and (2) any
other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

         "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, for each Reference Treasury Dealer and any date fixed for
redemption, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the
Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to
the Independent Investment Banker by the Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. on the third business day
preceding the date fixed for redemption.

         If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all the Series 2005A Bonds, The Bank of New York, as Trustee,
will select the particular bonds to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method of random
selection, if any, that The Bank of New York, as Trustee, deems fair and appropriate.

Page 5

         Any notice of redemption, at the Company's option, may state that the redemption will be conditional
upon receipt by the paying agent, on or prior to the date fixed for the redemption, of money sufficient to pay
the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Series 2005A Bonds to be redeemed and that if
the money has not been so received, the notice will be of no force and effect and the Company will not be
required to redeem this Bond.

         The Trust Indenture makes provision for a Special Trust Fund and permits the use of moneys therein for
the purpose, among others, of redeeming or purchasing this Bond.

         If default shall be made in the payment of any installment of principal of or interest on this Bond or
in the performance or observance of any of the covenants and agreements contained in the Trust Indenture, and
such default shall continue as provided in the Trust Indenture, then the principal of this Bond may be declared
and become due and payable as provided in the Trust Indenture.

         This Bond is transferable only on the books of the Company at any of the places designated above for the
payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or at such other agency or agencies as
may be designated by the Company, by the registered owner or by an attorney of such owner duly authorized in
writing, on surrender hereof properly endorsed, and upon such surrender hereof, and the payment of charges, a new
registered bond or bonds of this series, of an equal aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee
in lieu hereof, as provided in the Trust Indenture.

         The terms of the Trust Indenture may be modified as set forth in the Trust Indenture; provided, however,
that, among other things, (1) the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on all bonds outstanding under the Trust Indenture, as at the time in effect, shall continue unimpaired,
(2) no modification shall give any of said bonds any preference over any other of said bonds, and (3) no
modification shall authorize the creation of any lien prior to the lien of the Trust Indenture on any of the
trust property.

         No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this
Bond, or any part thereof, or for or on account of the consideration herefor, or for any claim based hereon, or
otherwise in respect hereof, or of the Trust Indenture, against any past, present or future stockholder, officer
or director of the Company or of any predecessor or successor company, whether for amounts unpaid on stock
subscriptions, or by virtue of any statue or constitution, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or
because of any representation or inference arising from the capitalization of the Company or of such predecessor
or successor company, or otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as a part of the
consideration for the issue hereof, expressly released.

Page 6

         SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY, a corporation organized and existing under and by virtue of the laws

_____________________, the registered owner hereof, the principal sum of $_______________ on January 15, 2036,

close of business on (1) the business day immediately preceding the interest payment date if this Bond is in

book-entry only form.

         The principal of and interest on this Bond are payable at the offices of The Bank of New York, as
Trustee, in New York, New York, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company, in such
coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private
debts.

         This Bond is one of a series, designated as "Series 2005B, Due 2036," of a duly authorized issue of
bonds of the Company, known as its "First and Refunding Mortgage Bonds," issued and to be issued in one or more
series under and all equally and ratably secured by a Trust Indenture dated as of October 1, 1923, and indentures
supplemental thereto, including the One Hundred Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of January 11, 2005, which
have been duly executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New York and D. G. Donovan, or
one of their predecessors, as Trustees, to which original indenture and indentures supplemental thereto
(collectively, the "Trust Indenture") reference is hereby made for a description of the property, rights and
franchises thereby mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security thereby created, the rights of
the holders of this Bond and of the Trustees in respect of such security, and the terms, restrictions and
conditions upon which the bonds are issued and secured.

         This Bond may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time prior to its
maturity, after notice given in writing (including by facsimile transmission) to the registered owner hereof at
the last address shown on the registry books of the Company, by the Company or The Bank of New York, as Trustee,
at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the date fixed for redemption, at a redemption price equal to
the greater of (1) the principal amount redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
payments of principal and interest on this Bond being redeemed, discounted to the date fixed for redemption on a
semi-

Page 9

annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Yield plus 20
basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption.

         "Treasury Yield" means, for any date fixed for redemption, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual
equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the date fixed for
redemption.

         "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an
Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term to
stated maturity of this Bond that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary
financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining
term of this Bond.

         "Comparable Treasury Price" means, for any date fixed for redemption, (1) the average of the bid and
asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount)
on the third business day preceding the date fixed for redemption, as set forth in the daily statistical release
(or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and designated "Composite 3:30 p.m.
Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" or (2) if that release (or any successor release) is not published or
does not contain those prices on that business day, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations
for the date fixed for redemption, or (B) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all of the Quotations.

         "Independent Investment Banker" means Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Citigroup") or its successor or,
if such firm or its successor is unwilling or unable to select the Comparable Treasury Issue, one of the
remaining Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by The Bank of New York, as Trustee, after consultation with the
Company.

         "Reference Treasury Dealer" means (1) Citigroup, Credit Suisse First Boston LLC ("CSFB"), and J.P.
Morgan Securities Inc. ("JPMorgan") and any other primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a
"Primary Treasury Dealer") designated by, and not affiliated with Citigroup, CSFB, or JPMorgan or their
successors, provided, however, that if Citigroup, CSFB, or JPMorgan, or any of their designees, ceases to be a
Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company will appoint another Primary Treasury Dealer as a substitute, and (2) any
other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

         "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, for each Reference Treasury Dealer and any date fixed for
redemption, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the
Comparable

Page 10

         Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the
Independent Investment Banker by the Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. on the third business day preceding
the date fixed for redemption.

         If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all the Series 2005B Bonds, The Bank of New York, as Trustee,
will select the particular bonds to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method of random
selection, if any, that The Bank of New York, as Trustee, deems fair and appropriate.

         Any notice of redemption, at the Company's option, may state that the redemption will be conditional
upon receipt by the paying agent, on or prior to the date fixed for the redemption, of money sufficient to pay
the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Series 2005B Bonds to be redeemed and that if
the money has not been so received, the notice will be of no force and effect and the Company will not be
required to redeem this Bond.

         The Trust Indenture makes provision for a Special Trust Fund and permits the use of moneys therein for
the purpose, among others, of redeeming or purchasing this Bond.

         If default shall be made in the payment of any installment of principal of or interest on this Bond or
in the performance or observance of any of the covenants and agreements contained in the Trust Indenture, and
such default shall continue as provided in the Trust Indenture, then the principal of this Bond may be declared
and become due and payable as provided in the Trust Indenture.

         This Bond is transferable only on the books of the Company at any of the places designated above for the
payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or at such other agency or agencies as
may be designated by the Company, by the registered owner or by an attorney of such owner duly authorized in
writing, on surrender hereof properly endorsed, and upon such surrender hereof, and the payment of charges, a new
registered bond or bonds of this series, of an equal aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee
in lieu hereof, as provided in the Trust Indenture.

         The terms of the Trust Indenture may be modified as set forth in the Trust Indenture; provided, however,
that, among other things, (1) the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on all bonds outstanding under the Trust Indenture, as at the time in effect, shall continue unimpaired,
(2) no modification shall give any of said bonds any preference over any other of said bonds, and (3) no
modification shall authorize the creation of any lien prior to the lien of the Trust Indenture on any of the
trust property.

         No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this
Bond, or any part thereof, or for or on account of the consideration herefor, or for any claim based hereon, or
otherwise in respect hereof, or of the Trust

Page 11

Indenture, against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the Company or of any
predecessor or successor company, whether for amounts unpaid on stock subscriptions, or by virtue of any statue
or constitution, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or because of any representation or
inference arising from the capitalization of the Company or of such predecessor or successor company, or
otherwise; all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as a part of the consideration for the issue
hereof, expressly released.

         This Bond shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been authenticated by the
execution of the certificate of authentication hereon of The Bank of New York, as Trustee, or its successor in
trust.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Southern California Edison Company has caused this Bond to be executed in its name
