Edison says current increase "remained within the design limits and operating criteria" for the circuits and "did not trigger system protection on these lines."

A private lab found evidence of two massive electrical faults in the Eaton Canyon area just before a fire erupted there and spread through much of Altadena, Calif.

An electric line that was repaired after the deadly Eaton wildfire caught fire last week. The line was less than a mile from the transmission tower that is a focus of investigators probing the wildfire that ignited Jan.

A law firm suing Southern California Edison released an edited video that it says appears show the start of the deadly Eaton Fire in Altadena.

In a Jan. 27 letter to the regulators, Southern California Edison revealed new details regarding its electrical equipment before the Eaton Fire.

Southern California Edison, a unit of utility Edison International , said on Monday preliminary analysis of data showed a "momentary and expected increase in current" on its energized lines in the Eaton Canyon corridor on Jan.

The utility company maintained that the current increase remained within the design limits and did not trigger system protection on these lines.

Los Angeles County officials are calling for an independent review of emergency notification systems after some residents argued that earlier warnings might have saved lives.

Southern California Edison has reported a Jan. 7 fault on a power line that was connected miles away from the lines located near the origin of the deadly Eaton Fire that sparked that day.

As the Eaton fire raged through Altadena, sheriff's deputies raced through the darkened streets evacuating residents. Then the fire neared their station, and they had to evacuate, too.

As the cleanup phase of recovery begins after the devastating fires in L.A. County, displaced residents grapple with new uncertainty surrounding the cost and timeline for rebuilding.
