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.

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.

After President Donald Trump said he used the military to restore Southern California's water supply, Gov. Gavin Newsom denied the claims, saying that federal water pumps were turned back on without military intervention.
