	   Enova Corporation      
	Common Stock Investment Plan 
 
	The Common Stock Investment Plan (Plan) of Enova 
Corporation (Enova) provides holders of the Common 
Stock, without par value (Common Stock), of Enova, as 
well as customers of San Diego Gas & Electric Company 
(SDG&E) who are not also shareholders of Enova, with a 
convenient and economical method of investing in shares 
of Enova's Common Stock without payment of brokerage 
commissions or service charges.  Shares may be 
purchased through the Plan by:  
 
	-	 Shareholders of Enova who may have cash 
dividends on all or some of their shares of Common 
Stock; 
 
	-	   Customers of SDG&E     who are not also 
shareholders of Enova, who may join the Plan by making 
an initial investment of at least $25, up to a maximum 
of $25,000, which will be used to purchase Common 
Stock, and thereafter have all dividends on shares 
purchased under the Plan automatically reinvested in 
additional shares of Common Stock; and 
 
	-	All participants, who may invest at their 
option additional cash amounts of not less than $25 per 
payment, up to $25,000 per calendar quarter, for the 
purchase of additional shares of Common Stock for their 
Plan accounts.  
 
	The price of shares purchased under the Plan will 
be either: (1) for shares originally issued by Enova 
under the Plan, the average of the highest and lowest 
prices for the Common Stock on the composite tape as 
published in the Western Edition of The Wall Street 
Journal for the pricing date, which normally will be 
the dividend payment date; or (2) for shares purchased 
under the Plan on the open market, the weighted average 
acquisition price of the shares purchased under the 
Plan for the pricing date in question.  See Question 16 
under "Description of the Plan." 
 
	The Plan does not represent a change in Enova's 
dividend policy which will continue to depend upon 
future earnings, financial requirements and other 
factors.  Shareholders who do not elect to participate 
in the Plan will continue to receive cash dividends, as 
declared, by check or through direct deposit as usual. 
 
	This Prospectus relates to shares of Common Stock 
of Enova registered for offer and sale under the Plan.  
The terms and conditions governing the Plan are 
described in this Prospectus, and it is suggested that 
this Prospectus be retained for future reference.  
  
	    Outstanding shares of  Enova Common Stock are, 
and the shares of Common Stock offered hereby will be, 
listed on the New York and Pacific Stock Exchanges.  
The reported last sale price of the Common Stock on the 
New York Stock Exchange on December 13, 1995, was $22 7/8.        
  
	THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR 
DISAPPROVED BY THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION 
NOR HAS THE COMMISSION PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR 
ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS.  ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE 
CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

	ENOVA 
 
	   Enova is the parent company for SDG&E.        
SDG&E is an operating public utility engaged 
principally in the business of generating, purchasing 
and distributing electric energy to approximately 1.1 
million customers in San Diego County and a portion of 
Orange County, California, and purchasing and 
distributing natural gas to approximately    700,000     
customers in San Diego County. SDG&E estimates that the 
population of the territory served as of December 31, 
1994, was approximately 3.0 million, of which 
approximately 1.2 million resided in the City of San 
Diego.  
 
	   Enova was incorporated in California in 1994, 
and was formed to become the parent company for SDG&E 
(which was incorporated in California in 1905).  The 
principal offices for Enova are in the Electric 
Building, 101 Ash Street, San Diego, California 92101, 
and the telephone number is (619) 696-2000.      
 
	DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN  
 
	Enova's Common Stock Investment Plan (Plan) is 
described in the following questions and answers.  For 
additional information concerning the Plan, you may 
telephone    Shareholder Services     at (619) 696-2020 
(local), (800) 826-5942 (inside California) or (800) 
243-5454 (outside California).  
 
 
Purpose and Benefits 
  
1.    What is the purpose of the Plan?  
  
	The Plan offers Shareholders a convenient method 
of reinvesting their quarterly cash dividends and 
investing optional cash investments to purchase 
additional shares of Enova's Common Stock.  
Additionally, Customers who are not also Shareholders 
may join the Plan by making an initial investment of at 
least $25 which will be used to purchase shares of 
Enova's Common Stock for their Plan accounts, and 
thereafter participate in the Plan.  All Common Stock 
purchases under the Plan may be made, at Enova's 
option, in open market purchases of Common Stock, or 
from the newly issued Common Stock, or any combination 
of open market purchases and newly issued Common Stock.  
When shares are purchased from     Enova, it will 
receive additional funds needed for general corporate 
purposes.       See "Use of Proceeds."  

                        4
<PAGE>  

2.    What are the advantages and disadvantages of 
participating in the Plan?  
 
	The Plan offers Participants the following 
benefits:  
  
	A.	Advantages to existing Shareholders: 
  
    	Cash dividends on their shares of Common Stock may 
be automatically reinvested in additional shares of 
Common Stock for their Plan accounts; 
 
		A percentage of the cash dividends on shares 
registered in their names (i.e., shares for which they 
hold certificates outside their Plan accounts) may be 
designated for the purchase of additional shares for 
their Plan accounts, while cash dividends on the 
balance of the shares registered in their names will 
continue to be received by check. 
 
	B.	Advantages to Customers who are not 
Shareholders: 
 
		   The Plan may be joined by making an 
initial investment of as little as $25.  This low 
minimum investment enables Customers to more easily 
invest in the parent company (Enova) of their utility 
company (SDG&E).       
 
	C.    Advantages to all Participants: 
 
		Cash dividends on all shares of Common Stock 
in their Plan accounts will be automatically fully 
reinvested to purchase additional shares of Common 
Stock for their Plan accounts at the Market Price; 
 
		Optional cash investments may be made for the 
purchase of additional shares of Common Stock for their 
Plan accounts at the Market Price; 
 
		Enova pays all costs associated with 
purchases made under the Plan; 
 
		The cumbersome safekeeping of certificates 
for shares purchased for their accounts under the Plan 
can be avoided, and regular statements regarding 
purchases and other activities for their Plan accounts 
will be provided to simplify their own record keeping.  
Moreover, the requirement that Enova withhold tax on 
cash dividends does not apply to any dividends 
reinvested under the Plan.  See Question 28.  
  
	D.	Disadvantages to all Participants: 
 
		A Participant is restricted in the timing of 
making optional or initial cash investments.  See 
Question 16.  In addition, due to the administrative 
delay in exiting the Plan, a Participant is restricted 
in the timing of selling shares held in his or her Plan 
account.  See Question 25. 
 
Participation  
 
3.	Who is eligible to participate in the Plan?  
 
	Any Shareholder is eligible to participate.  In 
addition, all of SDG&E's Customers are eligible to join 
the Plan by making an initial investment as described 
under Question 4, and thereafter to participate in the 
Plan.  
 
	Beneficial owners of Enova's Common Stock whose 
shares are held for them in registered names other than 
their own, such as in the names of brokers, clearing 
associations, banks and other nominees or trustees, may 
become holders of record (i.e., Shareholders) by having 
their shares transferred into their own names. 
Depending on the policies and procedures of individual 
brokers, clearing associations, banks or other nominees 
or trustees, beneficial owners may be able to 
participate in the Plan by requesting that the record 
holder or holders of shares held for them participate 
on their behalf.  Although Enova will permit such 
record holders to  
 
                                    5 
<PAGE> 
 
participate in the Plan on certain terms and conditions 
which differ from those set forth in this Prospectus, 
Enova makes no guarantee they will choose to do so.  In 
addition, participation in the Plan through brokers, 
clearing associations, banks and other nominees or 
trustees may be on additional or different terms and 
conditions than those set forth in this Prospectus, and 
may involve certain additional costs, in which case the 
terms and conditions set forth by each broker, clearing 
association, bank or other nominee or trustee shall 
govern. 
 
4.	How may a person join the Plan?  
  
	Shareholders may join the Plan by completing an 
Authorization Card and an IRS Form W-9 provided by 
Enova or by First Interstate Bank and sending them to 
First Interstate Bank, Dividend Reinvestment Service, 
P.O. Box 4326, Woodland Hills, California 91365, 
telephone (800) 307-7343.  
 
	Customers who are not Shareholders may join the 
Plan by completing an Enrollment Card and an IRS Form 
W-9 provided by Enova or First Interstate Bank and 
sending them to First Interstate Bank at the foregoing 
address.  
  
	    Forms may be provided from time to time by 
mail to Shareholders and Customers, and will also be 
furnished on written request to Enova Corporation, 
Shareholder Services, P.O. Box 129400, San Diego, 
California 92112, or by telephone request to 
Shareholder Services at (619) 696-2020 (local), (800) 
826-5942 (inside California) or (800) 243-5454 (outside 
California).      
  
	Shareholders who select either of the dividend 
reinvestment options described under Question 7 below 
are not required to send any payment with the 
Authorization Card.  An optional cash investment may, 
however, be made at such time.  See Question 18.  A 
Shareholder who wants to participate in the Plan while 
continuing to receive full cash dividends on all shares 
of Common Stock registered in the Shareholder's name 
may join the Plan by making an optional cash investment 
of at least $25, up to a maximum of $25,000, at the 
time the original Authorization Card is returned.  All 
joint owners must sign the Authorization Card.  
Customers of SDG&E who are not also Shareholders may 
become Participants in the Plan only by making an 
initial cash investment of at least $25 when the 
Enrollment Card is returned.  The maximum investment 
which may be made upon joining the Plan is $25,000.  
  
5.	When may a person join the Plan?  
  
	The Plan may be joined at any time by submitting 
an Authorization Card or Enrollment Card in the manner 
described under Question 4 above.  If an Authorization 
Card of a Shareholder specifying one of the dividend 
reinvestment options provided under the Plan is 
received by First Interstate Bank on or before the 
Dividend Record Date (approximately 35 days in advance 
of the Dividend Payment Date), the dividend will be 
invested in additional shares of Common Stock in 
accordance with the investment instructions contained 
therein.  See Question 14.  If the Authorization Card 
is received in the period between any Dividend Record 
Date and Dividend Payment Date, that dividend will be 
paid in cash and the Shareholder's initial dividend 
reinvestment will be delayed until the following 
dividend.  The initial purchase of Common Stock for a 
Customer who is not a Shareholder will be made on the 
first Pricing Date for optional and initial cash 
investments following the receipt of the Customer's 
Enrollment Card by First Interstate Bank.  The next 
cash dividend on the shares purchased with the initial 
investment will automatically be fully reinvested to 
purchase additional shares of Common Stock for the new 
Participant's Plan account at the Market Price.  See 
Question 15.    
 
6.	What does the Enrollment Card provide?  
 
	The Enrollment Card allows Customers who are not 
Shareholders to enroll and participate in the Plan.  By 
returning an executed Enrollment Card to First 
Interstate Bank with an initial cash investment of at 
least $25, up to a maximum of $25,000, the Customer 
appoints First Interstate Bank as his or her agent and 
directs First Interstate Bank to establish a Plan 
account for the Customer and apply the initial 
investment to the purchase of Common Stock for the 
Customer's Plan account.  Shares of Common Stock 
purchased for the Customer's Plan  
 
                                   6 
<PAGE> 
 
account will not be registered in the Customer's name, 
but will be registered in the name of First Interstate 
Bank or one of its nominees, such as Stone & Co., as 
agent for Participants in the Plan.  See Questions 12, 
22 and 37.  
 
	Dividends on all shares held in the Customer's 
Plan account will be automatically reinvested in 
additional shares of Common Stock for the Customer's 
Plan account at the Market Price.  Once a Customer 
becomes a Participant in the Plan, all provisions, 
benefits and requirements of the Plan become applicable 
to the Customer.  Should the Customer subsequently 
acquire additional shares registered in his or her 
name, or withdraw shares from his or her Plan account, 
a separate Authorization Card must be returned to First 
Interstate Bank to indicate how the Customer wishes 
dividends on such shares to be reinvested under the 
Plan. See Questions 7 and 9.  
  
7.	What does the Authorization Card provide?  
 
	The Authorization Card allows Shareholders to 
indicate how they wish to participate in the Plan.  By 
completing the appropriate instructions on the 
Authorization Card, Shareholders may indicate whether 
they want to reinvest their cash dividends under either 
of the following reinvestment options:  
 
	Full Dividend Reinvestment: 
 
	All cash dividends on all shares of Common Stock 
registered in the Shareholder's name or held in the 
Shareholder's Plan account will be automatically paid 
to First Interstate Bank, which will apply such 
dividends to purchase additional shares of Common Stock 
at the Market Price for the Shareholder's Plan account.  
  
	Partial Dividend Reinvestment: 
 
	All cash dividends on a specified percentage of 
the shares registered in the Shareholder's name will be 
automatically paid to First Interstate Bank, which will 
apply such dividends to the purchase of additional 
shares of Common Stock for the Shareholder's Plan 
account at the Market Price.  The Shareholder will 
continue to receive all cash dividends on those shares 
registered in the Shareholder's name which are not 
designated for reinvestment, as declared and paid, by 
check.  Partial dividend reinvestment is not available 
for shares held in the Shareholder's Plan account.  
 
	A Shareholder who does not want dividends on any 
of the shares registered in the Shareholder's name to 
be reinvested under the Plan may nevertheless indicate 
on the Authorization Card the desire to make optional 
cash investments as described under Question 18, and 
may join the Plan in the manner described under 
Question 4.  

  
	As noted above, partial dividend reinvestment does 
not apply to shares held in a Shareholder's Plan 
account. Cash dividends on all shares of Common Stock 
held under the Plan, whether purchased with reinvested 
dividends or with optional cash investments and 
including any shares transferred by the Shareholder to 
the Shareholder's Plan account as described under 
Question 31, will automatically be fully reinvested in 
additional shares of Common Stock.  If a Shareholder 
desires to discontinue the automatic reinvestment of 
cash dividends on some portion of the shares held in 
his or her Plan account, the Shareholder may withdraw 
any whole number of such shares from the Plan and be 
issued certificates therefor which would be registered 
in the Shareholder's name.  See Questions 22 and 24.  
Thereafter, cash dividends on such shares held outside 
the Plan account would be reinvested in accordance with 
the Shareholder's dividend reinvestment option then in 
effect.  See Question 10.  
 
	The Authorization Card appoints First Interstate 
Bank agent for the Shareholder and directs Enova to pay 
First Interstate Bank all cash dividends on shares of 
Common Stock registered in the Shareholder's name or 
held in the Shareholder's Plan account which are to be 
reinvested in accordance with the dividend reinvestment 
option selected.  The Authorization Card also directs 
First Interstate Bank to purchase shares of Common 
Stock  
 
                                     7 
<PAGE> 
 
for the Shareholder's Plan account with all cash 
dividends received by First Interstate Bank for 
reinvestment and with any optional cash investments 
made by the Shareholder.  
  
8.	What does the Automatic Investment Authorization 
Card provide? 
  
	The Automatic Investment Authorization Card allows 
Participants to make automatic monthly cash investments 
of a specified amount (not less than $25 per month up 
to a total of $25,000 per quarter) through an automatic 
withdrawal from a predesignated U. S. bank account. 
 
	To initiate automatic monthly deductions, the 
Participant must complete and sign the Automatic 
Investment Authorization Card and return it to First 
Interstate Bank.  Cards will be processed and will 
become effective as promptly as practicable.  
  
	Once automatic monthly deductions are initiated, 
funds will be drawn from the Participant's designated 
bank account two business days prior to each Pricing 
Date, and will be applied to the purchase of Common 
Stock for the Participant's Plan account on such 
Pricing Dates.  See Question 15.  
  
	Participants may change or terminate automatic 
monthly deductions by completing and signing a new 
Automatic Investment Authorization Card and returning 
it to First Interstate Bank.  To be effective with 
respect to a particular Pricing Date, however, the new 
Enrollment Card must be received by the Bank five 
business days prior to such Pricing Date.  
  
9.    What happens if a Participant who is reinvesting 
the Cash Dividends on all or a part of his or her 
Shares of Common Stock sells or transfers a portion of 
such shares? What if the Participant acquires 
additional shares in the Open Market or otherwise?     
  
	If a Participant who is reinvesting cash dividends 
on all of his or her shares disposes of a portion of 
such shares, First Interstate Bank will continue to 
reinvest the cash dividends on the remainder of the 
shares.  If additional shares are acquired and are 
registered in the Participant's name exactly as it is 
specified on his or her Authorization Card or 
Enrollment Card, the original authorization to reinvest 
dividends on all shares will include the new shares, 
unless the Participant changes the investment option 
selected.  
  
	If a Participant who is reinvesting cash dividends 
on part of the Participant's shares held outside of the 
Plan disposes of a portion of such shares, First 
Interstate Bank will continue to reinvest the cash 
dividends on that percentage of the remainder of the 
shares registered in the Participant's name which was 
specified on the Participant's Authorization Card or 
Enrollment Card.  For example, if a Participant 
authorized First Interstate Bank to reinvest the cash 
dividends on 50 percent of the shares registered in the 
Participant's name, at a time when the Participant held 
a total of 100 shares, and then the Participant 
disposed of 20 of these shares, First Interstate Bank 
would continue to reinvest the cash dividends on 40 of 
the remaining 80 shares.  Similarly, if the Participant 
who authorized reinvestment of dividends on 50 percent 
of the shares registered in the Participant's name 
acquired an additional 50 shares, or transferred 50 
shares out of the Participant's Plan account as 
described under Question 7, making a new total of 150 
shares held outside the Participant's Plan account, 
First Interstate Bank would reinvest dividends on 75 
shares.  
 
	The reinvestment options described under Question 
7 would continue until the Participant changed the 
investment option selected.  See Question 10.  
 
10.  How may a Participant change options under the 
Plan? 
 
	A Participant may change investment options 
previously selected at any time by requesting a new 
Authorization Card and returning it to First Interstate 
Bank, Dividend Reinvestment Service, Box 4326, Woodland 
Hills, California 91365, telephone (800) 307-7343.  All 
joint owners must sign.  Any change in options with 
respect to reinvestment of dividends must be received 
by First Interstate Bank on or before the Dividend 
Record Date in order for the change to be effective 
with respect to such dividend.  See Question 14.  
 
                                      8 
<PAGE> 
 
 
Costs 
 
11.  What costs do participants pay? 
 
	Participants will incur no brokerage commissions 
or service charges for purchases made under the Plan.  
All costs of administration of the Plan will be paid by 
Enova, except for (1) a Bank charge, currently $2.50, 
for each withdrawal of full-share certificates from 
continuing Plan accounts, (2) a Bank charge, currently 
$2.50, plus any applicable brokerage commission or 
other costs upon sale of shares by First Interstate 
Bank on termination of a Plan account, and (3) a Bank 
charge, currently $2.50, for any transfer of a 
Participant's directly held shares to the Participant's 
Plan account.  See Questions 22, 25 and 31.  
 
 
Administration 
 
12.  Who administers the Plan for the Participants?  
 
	The Bank administers the Plan and acts as agent 
for the Participants.  See Question 37.  Should First 
Interstate Bank resign or be discharged, another agent 
would be asked to serve.  
 
 
Purchases 
 
13.   Will the Plan purchase Shares in the Open Market?  
 
	All Common Stock purchases under the Plan may be 
made, at Enova's option, in open market purchases of 
Common Stock, or from newly issued Common Stock, or any 
combination of open market purchases and newly issued 
Common Stock.  
  
14.   When will Dividends be reinvested?  
  
	Purchases of Common Stock with reinvested 
dividends will be made as of the Dividend Payment Date.  
That date is the Pricing Date for reinvested dividends.  
The Common Stock    is expected to pay     dividends on 
the fifteenth day of the months of January, April, July 
and October.  See Question 15.  Shares representing 
purchases under the Plan of newly issued Common Stock 
may, for administrative purposes, be issued by Enova on 
or as of a date up to one week after the related 
Pricing Date.  Shares purchased under the Plan on the 
open market may be acquired over a period of a few days 
before and after the related Pricing Date.  
 
15. When will optional or initial cash investments be 
used to purchase Common Stock?  
 
	Optional and initial cash investments will be 
invested once each month, in order to minimize 
accumulation of uninvested funds.  In any month in 
which a cash dividend on Common Stock is paid, optional 
and initial cash investments will be invested as of the 
Dividend Payment Date.  In other months, optional and 
initial cash investments will be invested as of the 
fifteenth day of the month.  
 
	On written request, a Participant may receive the 
return of any optional cash investment if the request 
is received by First Interstate Bank no later than the 
second business day before such payment is to be 
invested.  
 
	As in the case of shares purchased with reinvested 
dividends, for administrative purposes, when purchasing 
shares from newly issued Common Stock, Enova may issue 
shares purchased with optional or initial cash 
investments on or as of a date up to one week after the 
related Pricing Date.  Shares purchased under the Plan 
on the open market may be acquired over a period of a 
few days before and after the Pricing Date.  See 
Question 14.  
 
                                       9 
<PAGE> 
 
	No interest will be paid on optional or initial 
cash investments held by First Interstate Bank.  
Therefore, Participants are encouraged to mail their 
optional and initial cash investments so as to reach 
First Interstate Bank as close to but not later than 
two business days before an investment date.  All such 
payments received by First Interstate Bank on or after 
an investment date will be held for investment in the 
following month.  
 
16.  What price will Participants pay for such Shares?  
 
	The price at which shares will be purchased with 
reinvested dividends or optional and initial cash 
investments will be the Market Price.  It should be 
recognized that, since investment prices are determined 
as of the dates specified in Questions 14 and 15, a 
Participant loses any advantage otherwise available 
from being able to select the timing of his or her 
investment.  
 
17.  How many Shares will be purchased for 
Participants? 
 
	The number of shares to be purchased for each 
Participant depends upon the amount of dividends 
payable, and whether full or partial reinvestment 
thereof has been selected, the amount of optional or 
initial cash investments made, and the Market Price of 
the Common Stock.  The total amount to be invested will 
be used to purchase as many full and fractional shares 
to three decimal places as can be purchased at the 
Market Price determined as described under Question 16.  
The requirement that Enova withhold a portion of cash 
dividends, as required by the Internal Revenue Code, 
does not apply to any dividends reinvested under the 
Plan.  Where dividends payable to foreign Participants 
are subject to income tax withholding, only the 
remainder of such dividends will be reinvested in 
additional shares.  See Question 28.  
 
18.  What are the limitations on optional cash 
investments? 
 
	Any Participant may make optional cash investments 
under the Plan in a minimum amount of $25 per payment, 
or in whole dollar increments up to a maximum of 
$25,000 in any calendar quarter.  Such funds must be 
received by First Interstate Bank at least two business 
days prior to the date on which they will be invested.  
See Question 15.  Only properly executed Automatic 
Investment Authorization forms, checks or money orders 
made payable to First Interstate Bank should be 
remitted.  The entire amount of such payments will be 
invested in full and fractional shares of Enova's 
Common Stock to three decimal places.  Any amount 
received of less than $25 per payment or in excess of 
$25,000 per calendar quarter will be promptly returned 
to the Participant.  The total of optional and initial 
cash investments during the calendar quarter in which a 
Participant joins the Plan cannot exceed $25,000. 
 
	There is no obligation to make any cash 
investments, the same amount of money need not be sent 
for each optional cash investment, and there is no 
obligation to make an optional cash investment every 
month unless the participant has authorized automatic 
withdrawal of funds from his or her U.S. bank by 
signing an Automatic Investment Authorization Card.  
See Questions 8 and 30.  
 
 
Statements/Reports 
 
19.  When and how will Participants be advised of their 
purchase of Common Stock?  
 
	As soon as practical after each purchase for a 
Participant's Plan account, a statement will be mailed 
by First Interstate Bank to the Participant advising 
the Participant of the investment and summarizing all 
investment activity for the year to date.  These 
statements are the Participant's continuing record of 
cost information and should be retained for tax 
purposes.  
 
20.  What other communications will a Participant 
receive? 
 
	In addition to a copy of this Prospectus, each 
Participant will receive copies of any amendments or 
supplements hereto in which modifications are made to 
the Plan, copies of Enova's    interim     and annual  
 
                                   10 
<PAGE> 
 
reports and proxy statements, and tax notices covering 
both directly-held shares and shares held in the 
Participant's Plan account.  However, Participants will 
not receive duplicate mailings where the same materials 
are furnished as a result of their direct ownership of 
shares.  In addition, where more than one Participant 
has the same address, only one copy of certain 
materials will be sent to that address if Participants 
to whom such materials are not sent agree thereto in 
writing.  See Question 27 for a description of a year-
end statement which each Participant will receive on an 
annual basis regarding dividends paid on all shares 
held in the Participant's Plan account.  
 
 
Dividends 
 
21.  Will Participants be credited with dividends on 
shares held in their account under the Plan?  
  
	Yes.  Enova pays dividends, as declared, to the 
record holders of all of its Common Stock.  As the 
record holder for Participants, First Interstate Bank 
(or its nominee) will receive dividends for all Plan 
shares held of record by it.  It will credit such 
dividends to Participants on the basis of full and 
fractional shares held in their accounts, and will 
reinvest such dividends in additional shares (to the 
third decimal point) at the Market Price.  
 
	Shares purchased through optional and initial cash 
investments made in any quarter, up to and including 
the Dividend Record Date for that quarter, will 
normally be entitled to any dividend payable at the end 
of that quarter.  See Question 15.  
 
 
Certificates 
 
22.  Are Certificates issued for the shares purchased?  
 
	Certificates will be issued by Enova to First 
Interstate Bank to hold for the Plan accounts of 
Participants.  This provides protection against loss, 
theft or inadvertent destruction of stock certificates 
and facilitates the ownership of fractional shares by 
Participants.  No certificates will be issued to a 
Participant for shares in the Participant's Plan 
account unless he or she so requests First Interstate 
Bank in writing or until his or her account is 
terminated.  At any time, a Participant may request 
First Interstate Bank to send the Participant's 
certificates for any full shares credited to the 
Participant's Plan account.  Such requests will be 
handled by First Interstate Bank at a charge, currently 
$2.50, to the Participant.   Certificates for 
fractional shares will not be issued under any 
circumstances.  
 
23.  What happens to the fractional shares when the 
Plan is terminated, or when a Participant requests a 
Certificate for whole shares but wishes to either 
remain in the Plan or terminate the Participant's 
Account under the Plan?  
 
	As long as a Participant remains in the Plan and 
owns, either directly or under his or her Plan account, 
one full share, any fractional share balance will 
continue to be maintained to the credit of the 
Participant's account.  
 
	When a Participant's account is terminated or if 
Enova terminates the Plan, a cash adjustment 
representing the fractional share will be mailed 
directly to the Participant.  The cash payment will be 
made by First Interstate Bank based on the market value 
of the shares of Enova's Common Stock at the time of 
termination. 
 
24. In whose name will Certificates for whole shares be 
issued? 
 
	Each Plan account of a participating Shareholder 
will be maintained in the name in which shares held of 
record by the Shareholder are registered.  The Plan 
account of a participating Customer will be maintained 
in the name specified on the Enrollment Card when Plan 
participation began.  Consequently, certificates for 
full shares will be similarly registered when issued.  
 
                                     11 
<PAGE> 
 
	Upon written request, certificates can also be 
registered in names other than that of the Participant, 
subject to compliance with any applicable laws and the 
payment by the Participant of any applicable taxes.  
 
 
Termination of Participant's Account 
 
25.  When may a Participant terminate his or her Plan 
Account? 
 
	A Participant can terminate an account at any time 
by written notice to First Interstate Bank of 
California, Dividend Reinvestment Service, P.O. Box 
4326, Woodland Hills, California 91365. However, the 
notice must be received by First Interstate Bank at 
least 15 days prior to a Dividend Record Date in order 
to make the termination effective by that Dividend 
Record Date.  Termination notices received less than 15 
days prior to a Dividend Record Date, but prior to a 
Dividend Payment Date, will be processed as soon as 
practical on or after the Dividend Payment Date.  In 
some instances, shares can be obtained more quickly if 
a Participant withdraws from their account a portion of 
their shares (see Question 22) and subsequently 
terminates the remaining balance, rather than 
terminating the full account at one time. 
 
	Upon such termination, the Participant will 
receive (a) cash for any fractional share held in his 
or her account, and (b) a certificate for all full 
shares held in the Participant's account.  A 
terminating Participant may request First Interstate 
Bank to sell all full shares held in the Participant's 
Plan account.  If a Participant requests the sale of 
the Participant's Plan shares, First Interstate Bank 
will promptly sell the full shares on the open market 
and pay the Participant the proceeds of the sale less a 
handling charge, currently $2.50, and any applicable 
brokerage commission or service charge.  Such a request 
must be in writing.  If the proceeds from sold shares 
are to be delivered to someone other than the 
Participant, the written request to First Interstate 
Bank must include a signature guarantee by an eligible 
institution such as a bank, credit union or broker 
which is a member of or a participant in a signature 
medallion program. 
 
	Whenever a Participant no longer owns shares 
directly and owns less than one full share under the 
Plan, First Interstate Bank is authorized to terminate 
the Participant's Plan account and send the Participant 
a cash settlement as outlined under Question 23 for his 
or her fractional share.  
 
 
Rejoining the Plan 
 
26.  When may a shareholder or customer rejoin the 
Plan? 
 
	Generally, a Shareholder or Customer may again 
become a Participant at any time.  However, Enova 
reserves the right to reject any Authorization Card or 
Enrollment Card from a previous Participant on the 
grounds of excessive joining and termination.  Such 
reservation is intended to minimize unnecessary 
administrative expense and to encourage use of the Plan 
as a long-term investment service.     
 
 
Tax Consequences of Plan Participation 
 
27.  What are the Federal income tax consequences of 
participation in the Plan?  
 
	Dividends which are reinvested in Common Stock 
under the Plan will be treated, for Federal income tax 
purposes, as ordinary income in the form of taxable 
stock distributions rather than as cash dividends.  A 
Participant whose dividends are reinvested under the 
Plan will therefore be treated as having received, as a 
dividend, an amount equal to the fair market value on 
the Dividend Payment Date of the shares acquired by the 
Participant through such reinvestment.  That value will 
be based on the Market Price for the Common Stock. The 
Participant's year-end statement will indicate the 
total amount of dividends paid on shares held for the 
Participant's Plan account.  Enova will send a separate 
statement reporting dividends paid on all shares 
registered in the Participant's name on the books of 
Enova.  
 
                                   12 
<PAGE> 
 
The tax basis for Common Stock purchased with 
reinvested dividends will be based upon the Market 
Price of the shares so purchased (the tax basis will 
also be equal to the amount of reinvested dividends).  
The tax basis of shares purchased with any initial or 
optional cash investment will be based upon the Market 
Price of the shares so purchased (the tax basis will 
also be equal to the amount of the initial or optional 
cash investment).  
 
	A Participant's holding period for shares of 
Common Stock acquired through the Plan will begin on 
the day following the purchase of such shares. 
 
	Brokerage commissions paid by Enova on purchases 
made by a Participant are includable in dividend income 
and will be reported to the Internal Revenue Service 
and on the Participant's statements.  Such amounts 
reported as income are also treated as increases in the 
tax basis of the associated purchased shares.  
 
	A Participant who receives, upon termination of 
the Participant's Plan account, a cash adjustment for a 
fraction of a share will realize a gain or loss with 
respect to such fraction.  See Questions 23 and 25.  
Gain or loss will also be realized by the Participant 
when whole shares are sold pursuant to the 
Participant's request upon withdrawal from the Plan 
(see Question 25) or when whole shares are sold or 
exchanged by the Participant after the shares have been 
withdrawn from the Plan.  The amount of such gain or 
loss will be the difference between the amount which 
the Participant receives for the shares or fraction of 
a share, and the tax basis thereof.  
 
	Participants are advised to consult their own tax 
advisor. 
 
28.  Are there any Federal income tax benefits 
applicable to reinvestment of dividends?  
 
	Federal income tax withholding is not applicable 
to dividends reinvested under the Plan.  The statutory 
withholding rate will be applied to cash dividends 
which are not reinvested under the Plan.  A statutory 
or treaty withholding rate will be applied to foreign 
Shareholders' cash dividends before they are paid or 
reinvested under the Plan.  Any amount withheld will be 
shown on the information return and statement issued by 
Enova and First Interstate Bank to each Shareholder.  
 
29.  What are the state income tax consequences of 
participation in the Plan?  
 
	State income tax consequences vary from 
jurisdiction to jurisdiction, and are not necessarily 
the same as Federal income tax consequences.  
Participants should consult their own tax advisor 
concerning state income tax treatment. 
 
 
Other Information 
 
30.  Is a Participant obligated to make optional cash 
investments? 
 
	No.  While the optional cash investment feature 
offers an opportunity to increase ownership under 
favorable terms, it is intended to be voluntary only 
and a Participant is not required to make such cash 
investments.  
 
31.  What is the effect on a Participant's Plan account 
if the Participant transfers all shares registered in 
the Participant's name held outside the Participant's 
Plan account?  
 
	None, as long as the Participant has at least one 
full share in his or her Plan account.  Dividends on 
Plan shares and any optional cash investments would 
continue to be invested under the Plan in additional 
shares of Common Stock for the Participant's Plan 
account.  A Participant who desires to avoid the 
responsibility for safekeeping of certificates for 
shares registered in his or her name, or to eliminate 
the necessity of keeping separate records with respect 
to such shares, may elect to transfer all of his or her 
directly-held shares to the Participant's Plan account.  
Such a transfer would be subject to a Bank handling 
fee, currently $2.50.  Once transferred to the 
Participant's Plan account, however, all dividends on 
all of such shares will automatically be  
 
                                    13 
<PAGE> 
 
reinvested in additional shares of Common Stock for the 
Participant's Plan account at the Market Price, and any 
previous instruction for partial dividend reinvestment 
with respect to the shares so transferred will no 
longer be in effect.  
 
	If a Participant in the Plan determines to dispose 
of all of the Participant's interest in Enova, the 
Participant must separately arrange with First 
Interstate Bank to dispose of the Participant's shares 
held in the Plan as described in Question 25.  The 
transfer of stock certificates representing directly-
held shares will have no effect on shares held in a 
Participant's Plan account except where the 
Participant's Plan account has less than one full 
share.  
  
32.  What limitations are imposed on the Participant 
with regard to the assets held by First Interstate Bank 
under the Plan? 
 
	The Participant shall have no right to draw checks 
or drafts against the Participant's Plan account or to 
give instructions to First Interstate Bank in respect 
to any shares or cash held therein except as expressly 
provided herein.  Also, the Participant cannot assign 
the shares held in the Participant's Plan account as 
collateral but must request delivery of a certificate 
for the Participant's full shares as provided in 
Question 22.  
 
33.  If Enova has a common stock rights offering, how 
will the rights on Plan shares be handled?  
 
	Warrants representing the rights on all Plan 
shares registered in the name of First Interstate Bank 
(or its nominee) will be issued to First Interstate 
Bank.  The Bank will sell such rights, credit each 
Participant's account in proportion to the full and 
fractional shares held therein on the record date for 
such rights, and apply the proceeds to the purchase of 
additional shares.  Participants who wish to exercise 
stock purchase rights on the Plan shares must request, 
five business days prior to the record date for any 
such rights, that First Interstate Bank forward to him 
or her a certificate for full shares as provided in 
Question 22.  
 
	Warrants representing rights on shares held 
directly by Participants will be mailed directly to 
them in the same manner as to Shareholders not 
participating in the Plan.  
 
34.  What happens if Enova issues a stock dividend or 
declares a stock split?  
 
	Any stock dividends or split shares distributed by 
Enova on shares held in the Plan will be credited to 
the Participant's Plan account.  Stock dividends or 
split shares distributed on shares held directly by 
Participants will be mailed directly to them in the 
same manner as to Shareholders not participating in the 
Plan.  
 
35.  How will a Participant's Plan shares be voted at 
annual or special meetings of shareholders?  
 
	Shares held in the Plan for a Participant will be 
voted as the Participant directs.  
 
	If the Participant has directly owned shares 
registered in the Participant's name, the Participant 
will receive a proxy card covering both the 
Participant's directly-held shares and the shares held 
in the Participant's Plan account.  If the Participant 
does not have directly owned shares registered in the 
Participant's name, the Participant will receive a 
proxy card covering the Participant's Plan shares.  In 
either case, all of the Participant's shares will be 
voted in accordance with the Participant's proper 
instructions.  
 
	If no instructions are indicated on a properly 
signed and returned proxy card, all of the 
Participant's shares (whether owned directly or held in 
the Plan) will be voted in accordance with the 
recommendations of Enova's Board of Directors.  If the 
proxy card is not returned, the Participant's shares 
may be voted only if the Participant or the 
Participant's duly appointed representative votes in 
person at the meeting.

<PAGE> 
 
36.  May the Plan be changed or discontinued?  
 
	While Enova hopes to continue the Plan 
indefinitely, Enova reserves the right to suspend or 
terminate the Plan at any time.  It also reserves the 
right to make modifications to the Plan.  Any 
suspension, termination or modification will be 
announced to participating Shareholders prior to its 
effective date.  
 
37.  What is the responsibility of First Interstate 
Bank as agent for Participants under the Plan?  
 
	The Bank receives the Participant's dividends 
which are to be reinvested and all initial and optional 
cash investments, invests such funds in additional 
shares of Enova's Common Stock for the Participant's 
Plan accounts, maintains continuing records of each 
Participant's Plan account, holds in a nominee name all 
shares purchased for Participants, and advises 
Participants as to all transactions in and the status 
of their Plan accounts. 
 
	All notices from First Interstate Bank to a 
Participant will be addressed to the Participant at the 
last address of record with First Interstate Bank.  
Participants should notify First Interstate Bank 
promptly in writing of any change of address.  
 
	In performing its duties under the Plan, First 
Interstate Bank shall not be liable for any act done in 
good faith, or for any good faith omission to act, 
including, without limitation, any claims of liability 
arising out of failure to terminate a Participant's 
account upon such Participant's death prior to receipt 
of notice in writing of such death.  This provision 
does not affect a Participant's right to bring a cause 
of action based on alleged violations of federal 
securities laws. 
 
38.  Who bears the risk of market price fluctuations in 
Enova's Common Stock?                              
 
	A Participant's investment in shares held in his 
or her Plan account is no different than investment in 
directly-held shares in this regard.  The Participant 
bears the risk of loss and the benefits of gain from 
market price changes with respect to all of his or her 
shares.  
 
	Neither Enova nor First Interstate Bank can 
guarantee that shares purchased under the Plan will, at 
any particular time, be worth more or less than their 
purchase price.  
 
39.  What has been the level of participation in the 
Plan?  
 
   	At March 31, 1995, 28,752 record holders of 
SDG&E's Common Stock, or approximately 40.9 percent of 
all holders of record of SDG&E Common Stock, were 
Participants in the Plan.  From October 15, 1976 (the 
date of the first dividend payment which could be 
reinvested) through April 30, 1995, Plan Participants 
had purchased 19,499,283 shares of SDG&E Common Stock 
through the Plan.      
 
 
	USE OF PROCEEDS 
 
	   The net proceeds from the sale by Enova of 
newly issued shares of Common Stock pursuant to the 
Plan will be added to working capital and may be used 
for any valid corporate purposes.  Enova is unable to 
estimate the number of shares of its Common Stock that 
ultimately will be sold by Enova pursuant to the Plan 
or the prices at which such shares will be sold.  Enova 
does not receive any proceeds from shares purchased for 
the Plan on the open market.

	COMMON STOCK DIVIDENDS AND PRICE RANGE  
 
	   SDG&E has paid dividends on its Common Stock in 
each year since 1909.  Enova became the parent company 
for SDG&E on January 1, 1996 and each outstanding share 
of SDG&E Common Stock became one share of Enova Common 
Stock at such time.  It has generally been the practice 
of SDG&E, and Enova expects to continue, to pay 
dividends quarterly on the fifteenth day of January, 
April, July and October to shareholders of record on 
the tenth day of the preceding month.  On November 27, 
1995, SDG&E's Board of Directors declared a quarterly 
dividend of $0.39 per share to be paid January 15, 1996 
to holders of record of SDG&E Common Stock on December 
10, 1995.  Future dividends to be paid by Enova on its 
Common Stock will depend on future earnings, cash flow, 
the financial position of Enova and other factors.      
  
	   Dividends paid in 1995 by SDG&E were fully 
taxable for Federal income tax purposes.  Enova 
believes that dividends paid in 1996 will also be fully 
taxable for Federal income tax purposes.  See Questions 
27 and 28.       
  
	   Enova's Common Stock is listed (and prior to 
January 1, 1996, SDG&E Common Stock was listed) on the 
New York and Pacific Stock Exchanges.  The high and low 
sale prices per share, reported on a composite basis, 
for SDG&E Common Stock for the periods indicated were

following summary does not purport to be complete and 
reference is made to the Restated Articles for a full

   DIVIDEND RIGHTS: After payment or setting aside for 
payment of all dividends and sinking fund payments, if 
any, on Enova's preferred stock, holders of Common

out of surplus or net profits of Enova.  As of January 
2, 1996, Enova had no preferred stock outstanding.  
Dividends on the Common Stock, if declared, are payable 
(subject to being changed from time to time as the 
Enova Board of Directors may determine) quarterly on 
the fifteenth day of January, April, July and October 
to shareholders of record on the tenth day of the 
preceding month.      
 
   GENERAL VOTING RIGHTS: Subject to the rights of 
Enova's preferred stock, if any, the holders of Common 
Stock have full voting rights.      
 
        
 
   LIQUIDATION RIGHTS: In the event of liquidation, 
dissolution, or winding up, after payment to the 
holders of any outstanding Enova preferred stock of the 
amounts to which they are entitled, all remaining 
assets shall be distributed to the holders of the 
Common Stock.      
 
        
 
PRE-EMPTIVE, SUBSCRIPTION AND CONVERSION RIGHTS, AND 
NON-ASSESSABILITY: The holders of the     Common Stock 
     do not have any pre-emptive, subscription or 
conversion rights, nor are the shares thereof 
assessable.  
 
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR: First Interstate Bank of 
California, P.O. Box 54261, Los Angeles, California

	INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS  
         
  
 
Item 15.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.  
  
	Section 317 of the Corporations Code of the State 
of California permits a corporation to provide 
indemnification to its directors and officers under 
certain circumstances.  The Restated Articles of 
Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Registrant 
eliminate the liability of directors for monetary 
damages to the fullest extent permissible under 
California law and provide that indemnification for 
liability for monetary damages incurred by directors, 
officers and other agents of Registrant shall be 
allowed, subject to certain limitations, in excess of 
the indemnification otherwise permissible under 
California law.  The Registrant maintains liability 
insurance and is also insured against loss for which it 
may be required or permitted by law to indemnify its 
directors and officers for their related acts.  
 
Item 16.  Exhibits.  
 
    
 
	See Exhibit Index.      
 
Item 17.  Undertakings.  
 
	(a)	The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:  
 
(1) 	To file, during any period in which 
offers or sales are being made, a post-effective 
amendment to this Registration Statement:  
 
		   (i)	To include any prospectus required 
by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;   
 
		  (ii)	To reflect in the prospectus any 
facts or events arising after the effective date of the 
Registration Statement (or the most recent post-
effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in 
the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the 
information set forth in this Registration Statement; 
and  
 
		 (iii)	To include any material information 
with  respect to the plan of distribution not 
previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or 
any material change to such information in this 
Registration Statement;  
 
		Provided, however, that paragraph (a)(1)(i) 
and (a)(1)(ii) shall not apply if the information 
required to be included in a post-effective amendment 
by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports 
filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 
Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
that are incorporated by reference in the Registration 
Statement. 
 
(2)	  That, for the purpose of determining any 
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such 
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new 
registration statement relating to the securities 
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at 
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide 
offering thereof.  
 
(3)  To remove from registration by means of 
post-effective amendment any of the securities being 
registered which remain unsold at the termination of 
the offering.   
 
	(b)	The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for 
purposes of determining any liability under the 
Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's 
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is 
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement 
 
                                    19 
<PAGE> 
 
 shall be deemed to be a new registration statement 
relating to the securities offered therein, and the 
offering of such securities at the time shall be deemed 
to be a new registration statement relating to the 
securities offered therein, and the offering of such 
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the 
initial bona fide offering thereof.  
 
	(c)	Insofar as indemnification for liabilities 
arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be 
permitted to directors, officers and controlling 
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing 
provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been 
advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and 
Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against 
public policy as expressed in the Act and is, 
therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim 
for indemnification against such liabilities (other 
than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred 
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of 
the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, 
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, 
officer or controlling person in connection with the 
securities being registered, the Registrant will, 
unless, in the opinion of its counsel the matter has 
been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a 
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether 
such indemnification by it is against public policy as 
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final 
adjudication of such issue.

	POWER OF ATTORNEY 
 
 
	KNOW ALL MEN AND WOMEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that 
each of the undersigned constitutes and appoints Henry 
P. Morse, Jr., David R. Clark and David R. Snyder, and 
each of them, his or her true and lawful attorneys-in-
fact and agents, each with full power of substitution 
and resubstitution, for him or her and in his or her 
name, place and stead, in any and all capacities, to do 
the following: 
 
(1)	execute post-effective amendments to the 
registration statements of San Diego Gas & Electric 
Company, a California corporation ("SDG&E"), which 
registration statements register common stock of SDG&E 
for issuance pursuant to SDG&E's common stock 
investment plan or various employee benefit plans of 
SDG&E (collectively, the "Existing Registration 
Statements"), for the purpose of having SDO Parent Co., 
Inc., a California corporation ("ParentCo"), as the 
"successor issuer" to SDG&E with respect to the common 
stock of SDG&E and for purposes of Rule 414 of the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), 
adopt such Existing Registration Statements as 
registration statements of ParentCo for all purposes 
under the 1933 Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934, as amended, and to file the same, with exhibits 
thereto and other documents in connection therewith, 
including any additional information necessary to 
reflect any material changes made in connection with or

to keep the Existing Registration Statements from being 
misleading in any material respect), with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"); 
 
(2)	execute a registration statement on Form S-4 in 
respect of additional shares of common stock of 
ParentCo which registration statement may be necessary 
or advisable with respect to the proposed merger (the 
"Merger") of SDG&E with San Diego Merger Company, a 
wholly-owned second-tier subsidiary of SDG&E, by which 
Merger ParentCo shall become the parent company of 
SDG&E (which registration statement shall incorporate 
by reference the prior registration statement on Form 
S-4 of ParentCo filed in respect of the Merger and 
declared effective by the SEC on March 1, 1995), and to 
file the same, with exhibits thereto and other 
documents in connection therewith, with the SEC; and 
 
(3)	execute any supplement or amendment to any of the 
foregoing, and to file the same, with exhibits thereto 
and other documents in connection therewith, with the 
SEC; 
 
granting unto said attorneys-in-fact and agents, and 
each of them, full power and authority to do and 
perform each and every act and thing requisite and 
necessary to be done, as fully to all intents and 
purposes as he or

	KNOW ALL MEN AND WOMEN BY THESE PRESENTS, that 
each of the undersigned constitutes and appoints Henry

Company, a California corporation ("SDG&E"), which 
registration statements register common stock of SDG&E 
for issuance pursuant to SDG&E's common stock 
investment plan or various employee benefit plans of 
SDG&E (collectively, the "Existing Registration

Inc., a California corporation ("ParentCo"), as the 
"successor issuer" to SDG&E with respect to the common 
stock of SDG&E and for purposes of Rule 414 of the 
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), 
adopt such Existing Registration Statements as 
registration statements of ParentCo for all purposes 
under the 1933 Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 
1934, as amended, and to file the same, with exhibits 
thereto and other documents in connection therewith, 
including any additional information necessary to 
reflect any material changes made in connection with or 
resulting from the succession of ParentCo (or necessary 
to keep the Existing Registration Statements from being 
misleading in any material respect), with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"); 
 
(2)	execute a registration statement on Form S-4 in 
respect of additional shares of common stock of 
ParentCo which registration statement may be necessary 
or advisable with respect to the proposed merger (the 
"Merger") of SDG&E with San Diego Merger Company, a 
wholly-owned second-tier subsidiary of SDG&E, by which 
Merger ParentCo shall become the parent company of 
SDG&E (which registration statement shall incorporate 
by reference the prior registration statement on Form 
S-4 of ParentCo filed in respect of the Merger and 
declared effective by the SEC on March 1, 1995), and to 
file the same, with exhibits thereto and other 
documents in connection therewith, with the SEC; and 
 
(3)	execute any supplement or amendment to any of the 
foregoing, and to file the same, with exhibits thereto 
and other documents in connection therewith, with the 
SEC; 
 
granting unto said attorneys-in-fact and agents, and 
each of them, full power and authority to do and 
perform each and every act and thing requisite and 
necessary to be done, as fully to all intents and 
purposes as he or she might or could do in person, 
hereby ratifying and confirming all that each of said 
attorneys-in-fact and agents or his or her substitute 
or substitutes may lawfully do or cause to be done by 
virtue hereof.
