               POWER OF ATTORNEY
	The undersigned hereby constitutes and appoints, Barbara E.
Mathews, Paige W. R. White, Kathleen Brennan de Jesus, Michael A.
Henry, Keith J. Larson, Darla F. Forte, Marga Rosso, Nihal P. Perera,
and Mary Everitt of Edison International and/or Southern California
Edison Company ("SCE"), signing singly, the undersigned's true and
lawful attorney-in-fact to:

	(1)	prepare, execute in the undersigned?s name and on the
undersigned?s behalf, and submit to the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the ?SEC?) a Form ID, including
amendments thereto, and any other documents necessary or
appropriate to obtain codes and passwords enabling the
undersigned to make electronic filings with the SEC of reports
required by Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
or any rule or regulation of the SEC;

	(2)	execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in any capacity
including without limitation in the undersigned?s capacity as an
officer and/or director of a company including Edison
International and/or SCE, or as a trustee, beneficiary or settlor of
a trust, Forms 3, 4 and 5, and all amendments and/or
supplements thereto, in accordance with Section 16(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;

	(3)	do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of the
undersigned which may be necessary or desirable to complete
and execute any such Forms 3, 4 and 5, and all amendments
and/or supplements thereto, and timely file such forms with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any
stock exchange or other authority; and

	(4)	take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with
the foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may
be of benefit to, in the best interest of, or legally required by, the
undersigned, it being understood that the documents executed
by such attorney-in-fact on behalf of the undersigned pursuant to
this Power of Attorney shall be in such form and shall contain
such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve
in such attorney-in-fact's discretion.

	The undersigned hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full
power and authority to do and perform any and every act and thing
whatsoever requisite, necessary or proper to be done in the exercise of
any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and
purposes as the undersigned might or could do if personally present,
with full power of substitution, hereby ratifying and confirming all that
such attorney-in-fact, or such attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes,
shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney
and the rights and powers herein granted.  The undersigned
acknowledges that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in serving in such
capacity at the request of the undersigned, are not assuming, nor is
Edison International or SCE assuming, any of the undersigned's
responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934.  The undersigned agrees that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact
may rely entirely on information furnished orally or in writing by me to any
of them.  The undersigned also agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
Edison International and SCE and the foregoing attorneys-in-fact against
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in these respects)
that arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or omission of
necessary facts in the information provided by me to any of them for
purposes of executing, acknowledging, delivering or filing Forms 3, 4
and 5 and all amendments and/or supplements thereto, and agrees to
reimburse such companies and the attorneys-in-fact for any legal or
other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or
defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.

	This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until the
undersigned is no longer required to file Forms 3, 4, and 5 with respect
to the undersigned's holdings of and transactions in securities for which
such forms are required to be filed including those securities issued by
Edison International and/or SCE, unless earlier revoked by the
undersigned in a signed writing delivered by registered or certified mail,
return receipt requested, to the Corporate Secretary of Edison
International or SCE.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, upon receipt by the Corporate Secretary of Edison International
or SCE, this Power of Attorney shall supersede and replace all prior
Powers of Attorney executed by me and filed with the Edison
International or SCE Corporate Secretary appointing Edison International
and/or SCE employees to file Forms 3, 4 and 5 with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 16(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934; provided, however, any
indemnification and reimbursement agreement contained therein shall
survive the termination of said Powers of Attorney.

	IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Power
of Attorney to be executed as of this 6th day of December, 2011.
