Our Commitment to Accessibility

We are committed to making our website accessible to all individuals with disabilities who use assistive technologies to get information. To help customers with disabilities manage their services online, our website has been modified to meet standards Level AA of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 at a minimum and WCAG Level 2.1 AA where technology allows.

Innovative Accessibility Features

SCE has implemented accessibility features in ways that are not yet common and so we want to make customers aware of them. What follows is an explanation of some of the helpful features of the new SCE website:

Layered mechanisms to skip content of interest and bypass repetitive content. Semantically structured content to aid in finding and using the specific information you need.

Moving carousels that pause by default when the user focuses upon them – either using a mouse or keyboard focus. Note that the carousel scroll movement will resume when the focus moves on. To permanently stop the scrolling content, the user can select one of the items. This will stop the scrolling action for screen readers and other users. Modal windows, media players, and other advanced features can be easily controlled from the keyboard.

Alternative content for maps and other complex visual information. Media players have close captioning and can be accessed by clicking "CC."
