The revised tariff sheets are listed on Attachment A and are attached hereto. PURPOSE The purpose of this filing is to advise the California Public Utilities Commission (Commission or CPUC) of an initiative by SCE designed to enhance service reliability by reducing the duration of service outages, enhance the safety of SCE's employees and members of the public, and help protect the environment. Specifically, the proposed initiative would implement an orderly discontinuance of an existing customer option that allows for the installation of certain types of electrical equipment for distribution systems, such as transformers, in underground structures.? Currently, such underground installation may be requested by a customer and approved by SCE. Upon implementation of this initiative however, and wherever it is technically feasible to do so,? SCE will only accept designs for and allow these types of equipment to be installed This change involves all primary-voltage electrical distribution system equipment, including, but not limited to, transformers, switches and fuses, capacitors, and junction bars. The Rule 20 undergrounding of existing overhead electric wires (conductors)themselves, however, is not affected by this change. Only the related transformers and other specified equipment will be installed above ground. 2 "Technically feasible" refers to the availability of the required physical space, either readily available or through architectural design, that can be set aside to accommodate the required electrical distribution equipment necessary for SCE,to serve the customer. The required space is defined by P.D. Box 800 2244 Walnut Grove Ave. Rosemead, California 91770 (626)302-3630 Fax(626)302-4829 ADVICE 2334-E (U 338-E) -2- March 27, 2009 in standard above-ground enclosures. This would apply for distribution systems with primary voltages of 4 kV (Kilovolt) through 35 kV for all new underground service to residential and business developments. For existing underground installations, failed equipment will be replaced with new underground equipment when available. Necessary replacements occurring on a planned basis will be installed above ground and upon consultation with affected partles.3 When SCE installs underground distribution systems today, standard designs include above-ground padmounted equipment wherever feasible. But in some cases, municipalities, residential developers, and customers who request underground distribution line or service extension conversions or relocations may request that equipment such as transformers be installed below-ground, primarily for aesthetic reasons. In most cases, SCE has been able to accommodate these requests and has implemented them under the Added Facilities tariff provisions.A The tariffs ,provide that, where SCE agrees, it will install facilities which are in addition to, or in substitution for the standard facilities SCE would normally install, provided the requesting customer bears the incremental cost of such facilities_ Below-ground transformers and related equipment are considered "other than standard facilities" Thus, Customers pay the incremental cost of these below-ground facilities_ SCE is taking this initiative to discontinue its existing practice of installing below-ground equipment for underground distribution systems because above-ground installations improve the reliability of electric service, are safer and easier to maintain and pose less of a threat to the environment. These important gains justify SCE no longer aMlowing new below-ground equipment installations in circumstances where tecihnicail or space concerns do not require them. Although in SCE's opinion existing tariff language is broad enough to implement the initiative without any modification, SCE proposes to add clarifying language to make it clear to customers that the option of below-ground equipment for underground distribution systems will no longer be available on a planned (versus failed) basis. Accordingly, this filing requests approval of modifications to Rule 2 - Description of Service, Rule 15 - Distribution Line Extensions, and Rule 16 - Service Extensions, to add language accommodating this initiative. existing design standards within the operation and maintenance requirements that are in compliance with applicable safety codes and regulations such as CPUC General Order 128. s Consultation with affected parties includes the advance notification of planned conversion work before work begins, which provides an opportunity for customers to voice their concerns. SCE will attempt to address the concerns raised by customers, within SCE's rules and the established design and construction standards. a Rule 2, Description of Service, Section H, Added Facilities. ADVICE 2334-E (U 338-E) 3- March 27, 2009 BACKGROUND By virtue of its location, distribution equipment in underground enclosed spaces (vaults, enclosures, etc.) is more difficult to install and maintain than above-ground equipment. Also, this equipment, in many cases, is located beneath traveled public roadways. Although rare, equipment failures in these underground spaces can occur and require significant safety precautions to repair. SCE has concluded that limiting the further use of underground equipment in underground distribution systems would increase service reliability, provide safety benefits and help protect the environment. Installing electrical equipment above-ground versus installing it in underground vaults or enclosures helps SCE further advance these important goals. The use of padmounted above-ground equipment is a standard industry practice. This preference has been a part of SCE's own design standards for many years and is identified in SCE's Rule 16 - Service Extensions, as part of SCEs-standard installations.a In fact, prior to the Commission's approval of Rule 'l6 language identifying padmount equipment as part of SCE's standard installation, the Commission issued Decision (D.) 92-03-065 which supported SCE's position concerning padmount equipment by stating that SCE's "standard transformer in a residential subdivision is a padmount transformer." Enhance Reliability Operating, maintaining and repairing below-ground equipment in enclosed, confined underground spaces such as vaults is difficult and complex worts. 'Electric service outages involving components installed in underground structures typically Mast much longer than those occurring above ground for the obvious reason that it usually tapes much longer to locate and repair or replace a failed underground component. Below- ground equipment located in vaults and enclosures creates unique challenges for SCE's maintenance personnel. Complex and time-consuming safety precautions and procedures for vault entry such as heat scans for"hot spots" and testing for combustible gases and breathable oxygen levels must be employed. These additional procedures hamper timely service restoration. If water is present, it must be removed before electrical work can begin; that process can take hours in itself.5 Moreover, as contaminants are typically present in the water in underground installations, it must 5 Rule 16Z.1 g. s The presence of water may also delay the ability to connect to the existing equipment and thus has a negative impact on new service connectivity for customers. ADVICE 2334-E (U 338-E) -4- March 27, 2009 often be trucked away to disposal sites for processing. In many cases, the equipment in the vault or enclosure may require steam or pressure washing before work can begin 7 Even routine maintenance activities take longer to carry out with underground equipment. During routine circuit switching operations, for example, multiple vaults and enclosures are accessed to operate equipment. Each vault or enclosure must be opened and, at a minimum, tested for combustible gas and breathable oxygen. All of these necessary activities significantly increase the time it takes to restore electric service. A key measure of electric system reliability is how long a power outage lasts before workers are able to restore the power. Customers will typically see their electrical service restored sooner when equipment is located above ground than when it is installed in below-ground structures, because it takes repair crews less time to locate and repair or replace above-ground equipment- Equipment degradation is also more likely to occur below-ground because equipment is especially susceptible to the corrosion that occurs when run-off water washes contaminants and pollutants, such as household chemicals, motor oil, and lawn fertilizer, into these structures and submerges the equipment a In addition, the SmartGrid technologies,2 which further enhance system reliability and reduce outages, require that certain electrical equipment, such as controls and telecommunication antennas and sensitive electronic circuitry associated with the equipment, be located above ground. Allowing customers to choose a below+-ground equipment option would hamper SCE's important efforts to integrate the SmartGrid technologies into its electrical system. Secure Safety Benefits Electrical equipment such as transformers and switches fail from time to time. Catastrophic equipment failures are rare, but do occur. When a catastrophic failure occurs, pressure inside an underground structure can build up and can be released through a rapid discharge of high energy. The release of this energy could result in the rapid exhaust of hot gases or flames.10 7 See Pictures 1 and 2 in Appendix A for examples of water accumulated in below-ground structures. 8 See Pictures 3 and 4 in Appendix A for examples of the corrosion of this equipment. 9 Smart Grid technologies will incorporate high-tech digital devices and telecommunication advancements, providing needed system intelligence for improved service reliability, increased operating efficiency, and enhanced system flexibility and security. These efforts are consistent with Title XIII of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. 10 An example of this type of failure occurred during a trouble call in July of 2004 (PIR#20041285) where a SCE crew was called out to repair a bad underground Buried Underground Residential Distribution (SURD) switch. After making repairs, the crew went to energize the primary cable that is the source for this SURD. During this time frame a 600-amp primary component in an adjacent substructure failed catastrophically, causing a large flame to shoot out of the Customer Subsurface ADVICE 2334-E (U 338-E) -5- March 27, 2009 While underground installations are relatively safe with proper precautions, SCE's goal is to achieve additional safety protections where reasonably.feasible. An incremental enhancement of safety is reasonable through the use of above-ground equipment, given that most underground installations are made purely for aesthetic reasons. Protect the Environment Water can accumulate in underground structures even in the absence of rains. The structures collect run-off, which is often contaminated with materials such as motor oil, pesticides and other substances. This water must be pumped out of the underground vault or enclosure, tested, and removed for proper treatment and disposal as required by environmental laws.t? Moving away from underground installations will reduce the number of collection points for standing and contaminated water. Implementation (Plan, Upon Commission approval, the types of equipment described above will be required to be located in above-ground padmounted structures in new installations when technically feasible, whether designed by SCE or third-party developers. Following a Transitional Grace Period of 90 Days after the effective date of this filing, SCE will no longer accept requests for underground distribution system installations that call for specific pieces of electrical equipment (all primary-voltage electrical distribution system equipment, including, but not limited to, transformers, switches and fuses, capacitors, and junction bars) to be installed in below-ground structures in circumstances where it is technically feasible to install the equipment above ground. Customers, developers, and governmental entities requesting SCE to install underground distribution systems would be required to utilize above-ground equipment_ SCE believes the proposed Transitional Grace Period of 90 Days, coupled with its Stakeholder Outreach activities discussed below (which have been occurring over the past several months) will allow customers ample time to prepare for this change and meet above-ground equipment design requirements_ SCE will implement this change in an effective and orderly manner. Implementation will consist of two distinct elements: (1) a change in design requirements that wi9l, following the Transitional Grace Period of 90 Days after the effective date of this filing, affect new residential and commercial developments, and which can be easily planned for, and (2) the carefully considered retrofitting, on a planned basis, of those existing underground structures which require replacement and which can be replaced with above-ground equipment where technically feasible. Transformer(CST) substructure where the component was located. Luckily, no employees were in the CST substructure during the failure. Had there been any employees in that substructure when the failure occurred, serious injuries may have resulted. 11 Federal Clean Water Act, State guided National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) legislation, local municipal regulations and ordinance, and the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) ADVICE 2334-E (U 338-E) -6- March 27, 2009 This implementation will take into account the realities of development and the practicalities of providing electric service in urban areas, by respecting existing below- ground equipment installations, and by affording customers and local governments the opportunity to share their ideas for aesthetic improvements when changes to existing installations are required. Existing Underground Equipment Where SCE has existing underground primary voltage distribution equipment installed in below-ground structures, the equipment will continue to be operated and maintained below ground. Should existing below-ground equipment fail and result in an unplanned outage, service will be restored on an emergency basis using below-ground equipment when replacement equipment is available. Where, however, existing below-ground equipment is scheduled to be replaced in a planned process, such as a maintenance program or capacity upgrade, the replacement will be made with similar, above-ground equipment, to the extent technically feasible. SCE will notify the affected parties on the placement of equivalent, new above-ground padmounted equipment before construction work begins- SCE will seek easements away from the public Fight-of-way as its preferred option, and will install the new equipment in the right-of-way only when an easement is not made available- Local Ordinances Some municipalities in SCE service territory have ordinances that purport to restrict or even prohibit utilities' ability to install equipment above ground. While the Commission's authority in the matters of utility system design is paramount over'local law,1' and while the Commission itself and California courts have consistently affirmed this in cases involving local ordinances,93 the Commission also prefers that the utilities consult with affected parties before making an above-ground installation.l4 SCE is committed to continue doing so. In new residential and commercial developments, SCE expects developers' designs to provide for location of the equipment on private property. Where installing above- ground equipment in retrofit situations, SCE will attempt, first, to obtain an easement from a property owner so the equipment may be located away from the public right-of-way. SCE will install the replacement equipment in the public right-of-way only if it is unable to obtain an easement. 12 See, e.g., California Public Utilities Commission General Order 131-D, P.U. Code§ 761, P.U. Code § 762, P.U. Code§ 768. 13 See, e.g., California Water& Telephone Company v. County of Los Angeles, 253 Cal.App.2d 15, 31 (1967) (county water ordinance cannot be applied to water company regulated by the CPUC). 14 See, e.g., California Public Utilities Commission General Order 131-D. ADVICE 2334-E (U 838-E) -7- March 27, 2009 Stakeholder Outreach It is a guiding principle of all important SCE projects and initiatives that they be shared with affected stakeholders in advance wherever possible, in order to answer questions and, where feasible, make adjustments to reflect stakeholder input. SCE has done, and continues to do so with this initiative. Prior to this filing, SCE has briefed dozens of representatives of local governments, representative organizations such as the League of California Cities, individual land developers and the Building Industry Association. SCE briefed in person, cities with ordinances in place that on their face would purport to limit the SCE's ability to install above ground the facilities this initiative affects. The company used written materials prepared specifically for this purpose. Other cities were briefed by letter. A number of stakeholders expressed concern that SCE intended to simply unearth perfectly serviceable below-ground equipment and replace it with above-ground equipment. SCE assured stakeholders that this is not the company's intention. In cases where a retrofit of an existing underground equipment is contemplated to result not in a like-for-like replacement, but rather with a larger or different device, the newer piece of equipment will be installed above ground_ In each case, SCE affirms its commitment to another guiding principle, that of consultation with affected stakeholders, in order to find the most acceptable aboveground location. Appendix B to this filing provides a sample listing of the local governments and other stakeholder organizations that were briefed prior to this filing. In addition, SCE will conduct workshops for stakeholders in the building industry to provide education concerning this change and the various design options whereby above-ground equipment can be better integrated into the architectural design of the project. Aesthetic Considerations SCE has assembled a team to research various options which would make padmounted equipment better blend, visually, into the surrounding landscape. Other utilities, vendors, and cities have been surveyed for relevant ideas_ Safety, equipment performance (heat dissipation, corrosion, etc.), operability, inspection, installation and replacement are some of the issues that must be considered for this equipment. SCE has developed a catalog of various approved aesthetic improvement options available to customers and developers to help minimize the visual impact of above-ground padmounted equipment. The catalog ("Above Ground Equipment Initiative Aesthetic Improvement Manual" or "AIM") includes aesthetic treatments and enhancements for above-ground equipment, such as use of certain colors, screening and landscaping. Aesthetic treatments may be available, at the customer's expense, subject to tariffs and applicable safety laws and regulations. SCE is open to suggestions from its customers and will evaluate them and include them in the catalog as options, upon approval_ The ADVICE 2334_E (u 338-E) 8 - March 27, 2009 AIM catalog is available on the SCE website at- http:llwww.sce.com/AboutSCE/Re.gulatory/distributionmanuals/. PROPOSED TARIFF CHANGES SCE proposes to insert the following language into Rule 2 - Description of Service, Rule 15 - Distribution Line Extensions, and Rule 16 - Service Extensions. "Following a Transitional Grace Period of 90 Days after the date SCE receives Commission approval of AL 2334-E, SCE will no longer accept requests under the Added Facilities provision of Rule 2, Section H, for underground distribution systems that call for specified pieces of electrical equipment to be installed in below ground structures in circumstances where it is technically feasible to install the equipment above ground. For purposes of this provision, specified pieces of equipment include all primary voltage from 4 kV to 35 kV electrical distribution system equipment, including, but not limited to, transformers, switches and fuses, capacitors, and junction bars. Where SCE has existing primary voltage distribution equipment installed in below-ground structures, the equipment will continue to be operated and maintained below ground. Should the existing below-ground equipment fail and result in an unplanned outage, service will be restored using below-ground equipment when replacement equipment is available. 1/Where, however, existing below-ground equipment is scheduled to be replaced in a planned process, such as a maintenance program or capacity upgrade, the replacement will be made with similar, above-ground equipment, to the extent technically feasible. "Technically feasible" refers to the availability of the required 'physical space, either readily available or through architectural design, that can be set aside to accommodate the required electrical distribution equipment necessary for SCE to serve the customer. The required space is defined by existing ,design standards within the operation and maintenance requirements that are in compliance with applicable safety codes and regulations such as CPUC General Order 128."

An underground Service Extension may be installed in an area where it is not otherwise required and when requested by Applicant and agreed upon by SCE. C. Following a Transitional Grace Period of go Days after the date SCE receives (N) Commission approval of AL 2334-E, SCE will no longer accept requests under the Added Facilities provision of Rule 2, Section H, for underground distribution systems that call for specified pieces of electrical equipment to be installed in below-ground structures in circumstances where It is technically feasible to install the equipment above ground. For purposes of this provision, specified pieces of equipment include all primary voltage from 4 kV to 35 kV electrical distribution system equipment, including, but not limited to, transformers, switches and fuses, capacitors, and junction bars. Where SCE has existing primary voltage distribution equipment installed in below-ground structures, the equipment will continue to be operated and maintained below ground. Should the existing below-ground equipment fail and result in an unplanned outage, service will be restored fusing below- ground equipment when replacement equipment is availlable. Where, I however, existing below-ground equipment is scheduled to be replaced in a I planned process, such as a maintenance program or capacity upgrade, the I replacement will be made with similar, aboveground equipment,to the extent I technically feasible. "Technically feasible" refers to the availability of the required physical space, either readily available or through architectural design, that can be set aside to accommodate the required electrical distributions equipment necessary for SCE to serve the customer. The required space is defined by existing design standards within the operation and maintenance requirements that are in compliance with applicable safety codes and regulations such as CP'UC (N) General Order 128. 4, Overhead Installations. Overhead Service Extensions are permitted except under the circumstances specified in section C.3.a above. 5. Unusual Site Conditions. In cases where Applicant's building is located a considerable distance from the available Distribution Line or where there is an obstruction or other deterrent obstacle or hazard such as plowed land, ditches, or inaccessible security areas between SCE's Distribution Line and Applicant's building or facility to be served that would prevent SCE from prudently installing, owning, and maintaining its Service Facilities, SCE may at its discretion, waive the normal Service Delivery Point location. In such cases, the Service Delivery Point will be at such other location on Applicant's property as may be mutually agreed upon; or, alternatively, the Service Delivery Point may be located at or near Applicant's property line as close as practical to the available Distribution Line.
