Note to Financial Statements
- -----------------------------


Basis of Presentation

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes the financial 
statements of SDG&E Funding LLC, a Delaware special-purpose 
limited-liability company, whose sole member is San Diego 
Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E), a provider of electric and 
natural-gas services.  SDG&E is a wholly owned subsidiary 
of Enova Corporation. This quarterly report should be read 
in conjunction with SDG&E Funding LLC's Financial 
Statements and Notes to Financial Statements included in 
its 1997 Annual Report on Form 10-K.  

SDG&E Funding LLC believes that the accompanying statements 
reflect all adjustments that are necessary to present a 
fair statement of the financial position and results of 
operations for the interim period.  All material 
adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature unless 
otherwise disclosed in this Form 10-Q.  Results of 
operations for interim periods are not necessarily 
indicative of results to be expected for a full year.  

SDG&E Funding LLC was organized for the limited purposes of 
issuing Notes and holding and servicing the Transition 
Property.  Transition Property is the right to be paid a 
specified amount (presented in the financial statements as 
"Transition Property") from a nonbypassable charge levied 
on residential electric customers and small commercial 
electric customers.  The nonbypassable charge was 
authorized by the California Public Utilities Commission 
(CPUC) pursuant to the electric industry restructuring 
mandated by California Assembly Bill 1890, as amended by 
California Senate Bill 477.

Since SDG&E Funding LLC is a single-member, limited- 
liability company, all of its federal income tax effects 
and its material State of California franchise tax effects 
accrue to SDG&E.



Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
        Results of Operations.

The following analysis of SDG&E Funding LLC's (the Note Issuer) 
financial condition and results of operations is in an abbreviated 
format pursuant to Instruction H of Form 10-Q. Such analysis should be 
read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Note to Financial 
Statements included in Item 1, above, and the Financial Statements and 
Notes to Financial Statements included in the Note Issuer's Annual 
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997.

The Note Issuer is limited by its organizational documents to engaging 
in the activities of owning certain property created pursuant to the 
California Public Utilities Code (the "Transition Property") and issuing 
notes secured by the Transition Property and other limited collateral, 
and related activities. Accordingly, operating statement effects were 
limited primarily to income generated from the Transition Property, 
interest expense on the SDG&E Funding LLC Notes, Series 1997-1, Class 
A-1 through Class A-7 (the "Notes"), and incidental investment interest 
income. The Note Issuer's primary operating expense is servicing fees 
payable to SDG&E. Offsetting this expense are the investment earnings on 
the monthly remittances from SDG&E. The investment earnings are not 
expected to fully offset servicing expenses payable to SDG&E.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 1998 the income generated 
from the Transition Property was $12 million. Interest expense of $12 
million relates to interest on the Notes and the amortization of debt 
issuance costs. 

Collections of FTA Charges are currently meeting expectations and were 
sufficient to pay all scheduled payments on the Notes and related 
expenses for the first Note payment due March 25, 1998. For the first 
quarter of 1998 collections of approximately $15,892,000 resulted in a 
surplus of approximately $1,000,000 after deducting scheduled principal 
and interest payments of approximately of $14,372,000, payments of 
approximately $437,000 for servicing fees and other expenses, and 
approximately $83,000 retained to fund the Overcollateralization Account 
established under the Notes' indenture. This surplus will be applied 
toward future payments on the Notes. The FTA Charges will be adjusted at 
least annually if there is a material shortfall or overage in 
collections. Management expects future collections of FTA Charges to be 
sufficient to cover expenses and to make scheduled payments on the Notes 
on a timely basis.

The Note Issuer has no computer systems of its own and relies on certain 
systems of SDG&E for information. While there is the potential for 
SDG&E's systems to be unable to recognize the year 2000, SDG&E is in the 
process of an extensive evaluation of its computer systems and an 
enterprise-wide date-conversion project.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable to the Note Issuer or the Trust.
