USE OF PROCEEDS

Pending application of the net proceeds for specific purposes, we may invest the proceeds in short-term or marketable securities.

DESCRIPTION OF THE MEDIUM TERM NOTES

General

SCANA will issue the Notes under an Indenture dated as of November 1, 1989 (the "Note Indenture"), between SCANA and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N. A. (successor to The Bank of New York), as trustee (the "Note Trustee"). A copy of the Note Indenture has been incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The information in this section "DESCRIPTION OF THE MEDIUM TERM NOTES" briefly outlines some of the provisions of the Note Indenture. Please review the Note Indenture that we filed with the SEC for a full statement of those provisions. See "WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION" on how to obtain a copy of the Note Indenture. You may also review the Note Indenture at the Note Trustee's offices at 101 Barclay Street 8W, New York, New York 10286.

Capitalized terms used and defined under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE MEDIUM TERM NOTES" have the meanings given such terms as defined herein. Capitalized terms used under this heading which are not otherwise defined in this prospectus have the meanings given those terms in the Note Indenture. The summaries under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE MEDIUM TERM NOTES" are not detailed. Whenever particular provisions of the Note Indenture or terms defined in the Note Indenture are referred to, those statements are qualified by reference to the Note Indenture. References to article and section numbers under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE MEDIUM TERM NOTES," unless otherwise indicated, are references to article and section numbers of the Note Indenture.

The Notes and all other debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness issued under the Note Indenture (referenced in this section as "debt securities") will be unsecured and will in all respects be equally and ratably entitled to the benefits of the Note Indenture, without preference, priority or distinction, and will rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of SCANA. The Note Indenture does not limit the amount of debt securities that can be issued thereunder, and provides that our Notes may be executed in one or more series, as established in or pursuant to a board resolution and set forth in an officers' certificate or established in one or more supplemental indentures, and authenticated and delivered upon the delivery to the Note Trustee of such company

9

orders, opinions and officers' certificates as may be required under the Note Indenture. (Sections 301 and 302) The Note Indenture also allows us to "reopen" any series of debt securities (including any series of Notes) by issuing additional debt securities of that series, if permitted by the terms of that series.

Each prospectus supplement which accompanies this prospectus in connection with an offering of Notes will set forth some or all of the following information to describe a particular series of Notes:

• any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the Notes;

• the date or dates on which the principal of the Notes will be payable;

• the rate or rates at which the Notes will bear interest, if any (or the method of calculating the rate); the date or dates from which the interest will accrue; the date or dates on which the interest will be payable ("Interest Payment Dates"); the record dates for the interest payable on the Interest Payment Dates; and the basis upon which interest will be calculated if other than of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months;

• any option on the part of us or the holders thereof to redeem the Notes and redemption terms and conditions;

• any obligation on our part to redeem or purchase the Notes in accordance with any sinking fund or analogous provisions or at the option of the holder and the relevant terms and conditions for that redemption or purchase;

• the denominations of the Notes;

• whether the Notes are subject to a book-entry system of transfers and payments; and

• any other particular terms of the Notes and of their offering. (Section 301)

Payment of Notes; Transfers; Exchanges

Unless otherwise provided in a prospectus supplement, we will pay any interest due on each Note to the person in whose name that Note is registered as of the close of business on the record date relating to each Interest Payment Date. However, we will pay interest when the Notes mature (whether the Notes mature on their stated date of maturity, the date the Notes are redeemed or otherwise) to the person to whom the principal payment on the Notes is paid. If there is a default in the payment of interest on the Notes, we may either (1) choose a special record date which special record date is between ten and fifteen days prior to a payment date and pay on that payment date the holders of the Notes as of the close of business on that special record date, or (2) pay the holders of the Notes in any other lawful manner, all as more fully described in the Note Indenture. (Section 307)

We will pay principal of, and any premium and interest due on, the Notes at maturity or upon earlier redemption or repayment of a Note upon surrender of that Note at the office of the paying agent (currently, the Note Trustee in New York, New York). (Sections 307, 308, 1001 and 1105) The applicable prospectus supplement identifies any other place of payment and any other paying agent. We may change the place at which the Notes will be payable, may appoint one or more additional paying agents and may remove any paying agent, all at our discretion. (Section 1002) Further, if we provide money to a paying agent to be used to make payments of principal of, premium (if any) or interest on any Note and that money has not rightfully been claimed two years after the applicable principal, premium or interest payment is due, then we may instruct the paying agent to remit that money to us, and any holder of a Note seeking those payments may thereafter look only to us for that money. (Section 1003)

Except as provided in a prospectus supplement, if principal of or premium (if any) or interest on the Notes is payable on a day which is not a Business Day, payment thereof will be postponed to the next Business Day, and no additional interest will accrue as a result of the delayed payment. (Section 114)

10

"Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday that is not a day on which banking institutions in Washington, D.C., or in New York, New York, are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed.

The "record date" will be 15 calendar days prior to each Interest Payment Date, whether or not that day is a Business Day, unless otherwise indicated in this prospectus or in the applicable prospectus supplement.

You may transfer or exchange the Notes for other Notes of the same series, in authorized denominations (which are, unless otherwise stated in the prospectus supplement, denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof), and of like aggregate principal amount, at our office or agency in New York, New York (currently, the Note Trustee). At our discretion, we may change the place for registration and transfer of the Notes, and we may appoint one or more additional security registrars and remove any security registrar. The prospectus supplement will identify any additional place for registration of transfer and any additional security registrar. You are not responsible for paying a service charge for any transfer or exchange of the Notes, but you may have to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes. (Sections 305, 307 and 1002)

Redemptions

The Notes are subject to redemption prior to their stated maturity, as set forth in the relevant prospectus supplement. (Section 1101) If we redeem some or all of the Notes, the Note Trustee must notify you between 30 and 60 (or such shorter period specified in the applicable prospectus supplement) days before the redemption date (by first-class mail, postage prepaid) that some or all of the Notes will be redeemed. (Sections 106 and 1104) Further, if only a part of a Note is redeemed, then the holder of the unredeemed part of that Note will receive one or more new Notes. (Section 1107) The Notes will not be subject to any sinking fund. (Section 1201)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time, we may purchase the Notes or beneficial ownership interests in the Notes (if they are held in book-entry form) at any price in the open market or otherwise. In our sole discretion, we may hold, resell or retire any Notes or beneficial ownership interests in those Notes that we purchase.

Defaults

The following are defaults under the Note Indenture with respect to debt securities issued under the Note Indenture:

(1) We fail to make payment of principal and premium (if any) on the debt securities when due and payable at maturity,

(2) We fail to make payment of any interest or any other amount when due and payable on the debt securities, and such default continues for a period of 30 days;

(3) We fail to deposit any sinking fund payment when due and payable on the debt securities, and such default continues for a period of three Business Days;

(4) We file for bankruptcy or certain other events involving insolvency, receivership or bankruptcy occur;

(5) We fail to perform certain covenants or agreements contained in the Note Indenture or the occurrence of other events specified as defaults with respect to the debt securities;

(6) Either we or our principal subsidiaries (notably SCE&G and GENCO) fail to make payment on certain indebtedness or otherwise fail to perform under such indebtedness or the mortgage, indenture or other instrument authorizing, relating to or securing such indebtedness.

Certain of these events become defaults only after the lapse of prescribed periods of time and/or notice from the Note Trustee. (Section 501)

11

Upon the occurrence of a default under the Note Indenture, either the Note Trustee or the holder of at least 25% in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of the affected series may declare the principal of all outstanding debt securities of that series immediately due and payable. However, if the default is cured, the holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of the affected series may rescind that declaration and annul the declaration and its consequences. (Section 502)

The holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of the affected series may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for the enforcement of the Note Indenture. (Section 512)

No holder of any debt security of any series has the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Note Indenture unless:

• the holder previously gave written notice of a continuing event of default relating to the debt securities of that series to the Note Trustee,

• the holders of more than 25% in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of the affected series offer to the Note Trustee reasonable indemnity against costs and liabilities and request the Note Trustee to take action, and the Note Trustee declines to take action for 60 days after receipt of such request, and

• the holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of the affected series give no inconsistent direction during such 60-day period;

provided, however, that each holder of a Note shall have the right to enforce payment of that Note when due. (Sections 507 and 508)

The Note Trustee must notify the holders of the debt securities of any series within 90 days after a default has occurred with respect to those debt securities, unless that default has been cured or waived, provided, however, except in the case of default in the payment of principal of, premium (if any), or interest or other amount payable on any debt security, the Note Trustee may withhold the notice if it determines that it is in the interest of those holders to do so. (Section 602)

We are required under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act"), to furnish to the Note Trustee at least once every year a certificate as to our compliance with the conditions and covenants under the Note Indenture and to deliver reports, information and other documents to the Note Trustee and to file certain documents with the SEC. (Sections 704 and 1005)

The Note Indenture provides that we will keep the property that we use in our business, or in the business of our subsidiaries, in good working order, and will improve it as necessary to properly conduct our business and that of our subsidiaries, as the case may be. (Section 1007) Except as described in the next paragraph, the Note Indenture provides that we will also maintain our corporate existence, rights and franchises and those of SCE&G and GENCO (collectively, our "Principal Subsidiaries"). (Section 1006) However, we are not required to preserve (a) the corporate existence of any of our subsidiaries other than our Principal Subsidiaries or (b) any such right or franchise if we determine that its preservation is not desirable in the conduct of our business or the business of our subsidiaries, consolidated as a whole, or its loss is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the holders of the outstanding debt securities of any series. (Section 1006)

The Note Indenture provides that we may, without the consent of the holders of the debt securities, consolidate with, or sell, lease or convey all or substantially all of our assets to, or merge into another corporation, provided that (1) we are the continuing corporation, or, if not, the successor corporation assumes by a supplemental indenture our obligations under the Note Indenture and (2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction there will be no default in the performance of any such obligations. (Section 801)

12

The Note Indenture provides that neither we nor our subsidiaries may issue, assume or guarantee any notes, bonds, debentures or other similar evidences of indebtedness for money borrowed ("Debt") secured by a mortgage, lien, pledge or other encumbrance ("Mortgages") upon any property of ours or our subsidiaries without effectively providing that the debt securities of each series issued under the Note Indenture (together with, if we so determine, any other indebtedness or obligation then existing or thereafter created ranking equally with those debt securities) are secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Debt so long as such Debt is so secured, except that this restriction will not apply to:

(1) Mortgages to secure Debt issued under

• the Indenture, dated April 1, 1993, between SCE&G and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (successor to NationsBank of Georgia, National Association), as Trustee, and

• the Mortgage and Security Agreement, dated August 21, 1992, between GENCO and The Prudential Insurance Company of America, as amended and restated by the Second Amended and Restated Mortgage and Security Agreement dated May 30, 2008, between GENCO and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Collateral Agent,

each as amended and supplemented to date and as it may be hereafter amended and supplemented from time to time ("Existing Mortgages"), or any extension, renewal or replacement of any of them;

(2) Mortgages affecting property of a corporation existing at the time it becomes our subsidiary or at the time it is merged into or consolidated with us or one of our subsidiaries;

(3) Mortgages on property existing at the time of acquisition thereof or incurred to secure payment of all or part of the purchase price thereof or to secure Debt incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 12 months after the acquisition for the purpose of financing all or part of the purchase price thereof;

(4) Mortgages on any property to secure all or part of the cost of construction or improvements thereon or Debt incurred to provide funds for such purpose in a principal amount not exceeding the cost of such construction or improvements;

(5) Mortgages which secure only an indebtedness owing by one of our subsidiaries to us or to another of our subsidiaries;

(6) certain Mortgages to government entities, including mortgages to secure debt incurred in pollution control or industrial revenue bond financings;

(7) Mortgages required by any contract or statute in order to permit us or one of our subsidiaries to perform any contract or subcontract made with or at the request of the United States of America, any state or any department, agency or instrumentality or political subdivision of either;

(8) Mortgages to secure loans to us or to our subsidiaries maturing within 12 months from the creation thereof and made in the ordinary course of business;

(9) Mortgages on any property (including any natural gas, oil or other mineral property) to secure all or part of the cost of exploration, drilling or development thereof or to secure Debt incurred to provide funds for any such purpose;

(10) Mortgages existing on the date of the Note Indenture;

(11) "Excepted Encumbrances" and "Permitted Encumbrances" as such terms are defined in any of the Existing Mortgages;

13

(12) certain Mortgages typically incurred in the ordinary course of business or arising from any litigation or any legal proceeding which is currently being contested in good faith; and

(13) any extension, renewal or replacement of any Mortgage referred to in the foregoing clauses (2) through (12), which does not increase the amount of debt secured thereby at the time of the renewal, extension or modification.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Note Indenture provides that we and any or all of our subsidiaries may, without securing the debt securities, issue, assume or guarantee Debt secured by Mortgages in an aggregate principal amount which (not including Debt permitted to be secured under clauses (1) to (13) inclusive above) does not at any one time exceed 10% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (as hereinafter defined) of us and our subsidiaries. (Section 1009)

"Consolidated Net Tangible Assets" is defined as the total amount of assets appearing on the consolidated balance sheet of us and our subsidiaries subtracting, without duplication, the following:

• all reserves for depreciation and other asset valuation reserves but excluding reserves for deferred federal income taxes;

• all intangible assets such as goodwill, trademarks, trade names, patents and unamortized debt discount and expense; and

• all appropriate adjustments on account of minority interests of other persons holding voting stock in any of our subsidiaries. (Section 101)

Modification, Waiver and Meetings

We may, without the consent of any holders of outstanding debt securities, enter into supplemental indentures for, including but not limited to, the following purposes:

• to add to our covenants for the benefit of the holders or to surrender a right or power conferred upon us in the Note Indenture,

• to secure the debt securities,

• to establish the form or terms of any series of debt securities, or

• to make certain other modifications, generally of a ministerial or immaterial nature. (Section 901)

We may amend the Note Indenture for other purposes only with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of each affected series of outstanding debt securities. However, we may not amend the Note Indenture without the consent of the holder of each affected outstanding debt security for the following purposes:

• to change the stated maturity or redemption date of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any debt security or to reduce the principal amount, the interest rate of, any other amount payable in respect of or any premium payable on the redemption of any debt security;

• to reduce the principal amount of any debt security which is an Original Issue Discount Security (as defined in the Note Indenture) that would be due upon a declaration of acceleration of that security's maturity;

• to change the place or currency of any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any debt security;

14

• to impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any debt security after the stated maturity or redemption date of that debt security;

• to reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of any series for which the consent of the holders is required to modify or amend the Note Indenture or to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Note Indenture, or reduce certain quorum or voting requirements of the Note Indenture; or

• to modify the foregoing requirements or reduce the percentage of outstanding debt securities necessary to modify other provisions of the Note Indenture or waive any past default thereunder. (Section 902)

Except with respect to certain fundamental provisions, the holders of a majority in principal amount of outstanding debt securities of any series may waive past defaults with respect to that series and may waive our compliance with certain provisions of the Note Indenture with respect to that series. (Sections 513 and 1010)

We, the Note Trustee or the holders of at least 10% in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of the applicable series, may at any time call a meeting of the holders of debt securities of a particular series, and notice of that meeting will be given in accordance with "Notices" below. (Section 1402) Any resolution passed or decision taken at any meeting of holders of debt securities of a particular series duly held in accordance with the Note Indenture will be binding on all holders of debt securities of that series. The quorum at any meeting called for the holders of debt securities of a particular series to adopt a resolution, and at any reconvened meeting, will be a majority in principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of that series. (Section 1404)

Notices

Notices to holders of the Notes will be given by mail to the addresses of such holders as they appear in the security register. (Section 106)

Defeasance

If we deposit with the Note Trustee, money or Federal Securities (as defined in the Note Indenture) sufficient to pay, when due, the principal, premium (if any) and interest due on the Notes, then we will be discharged from any and all obligations with respect to the Notes, except for certain continuing obligations to register the transfer or exchange of those debt securities, to maintain paying agencies and to hold moneys for payment in trust. (Section 401)

Our Relationship with the Note Trustee

The Note Trustee and/or one or more of its affiliates may be lenders under our, or our subsidiaries', credit agreements and may provide other commercial banking, investment banking and other services to us and/or our subsidiaries. The Note Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions with us and/or our subsidiaries; however, if the Note Trustee acquires any conflicting interest, as defined in the Trust Indenture Act or provided under the Note Indenture, it must eliminate the conflict or resign.

DESCRIPTION OF THE COMMON STOCK

General

The rights of holders of the Common Stock are currently governed by the South Carolina Business Corporation Act of 1988 (the “SCBCA”), Title 35, Chapter 2 of the Code of Laws of South Carolina 1976, as amended (the “Business Combination Statutes”), and the restated articles of incorporation and bylaws of SCANA, copies of which restated articles of incorporation and bylaws have been incorporated by reference as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The following summary describes the material rights of SCANA's shareholders. The summaries under this heading are not detailed. Whenever particular provisions of the restated articles of incorporation or bylaws of

15

SCANA are referred to, those statements are qualified by reference to those restated articles of incorporation or bylaws, as applicable.

Authorized Capital Stock: Under the SCBCA, a corporation may not issue a greater number of shares than have been authorized by its articles of incorporation. The authorized capital stock of SCANA consists of 200,000,000 shares of SCANA common stock, without par value, and no shares of preferred stock. At the close of business on February 28, 2018, 142,916,917 shares of our common stock were issued, of which 142,638,371 were outstanding. At February 28, 2018, not more than 13.8 million shares of our common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to our benefit plans and our Investor Plus Plan.

Voting: Holders of the Common Stock are entitled to one vote, in person or by proxy, for each share held on the applicable record date with respect to each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders, and may not cumulate their votes.

Dividends: Holders of the Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends as and when declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.

Liquidation Rights: In the event we liquidate, dissolve or wind up our affairs, the holders of the Common Stock would be entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to shareholders of our common stock remaining after payment in full of liabilities.

Other Rights: Holders of the Common Stock do not have preemptive rights to subscribe for additional shares when we offer for sale additional shares of our common stock nor are they liable to further capital calls or to assessments by us. The Common Stock does not have any sinking fund or conversion provisions.

Listing: The Common Stock is listed on The New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “SCG”.

Transfer Agent and Registrar: The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock is currently Equiniti Trust Company.

Provisions Relating to Change in Control

SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation and bylaws, the SCBCA and the Business Combination Statutes contain provisions which could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of SCANA. These provisions are summarized below.

Corporate Governance Provisions

SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation provide that its board of directors is subdivided into three classes, with each class as nearly equal in number of directors as possible. Each class of directors serves for three years and one class is elected each year. SCANA currently has nine directors (in classes with terms expiring in 2018, 2019 and 2020). SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation and bylaws provide that:

• the authorized number of directors may range from a minimum of nine to a maximum of 20, as determined from time to time by the directors;

• directors can be removed except for cause only by the affirmative vote of the holders of 80 percent of the shares of SCANA's stock who are entitled to vote; and

• vacancies and newly created directorships on SCANA's board of directors can be filled by a majority vote of the remaining directors then in office, even though less than a quorum is present when the vote was held, and any new director elected to fill a vacancy will serve until the next shareholders' meeting at which directors of any class are elected.

Anti-Takeover Provisions and Prevention of Greenmail

Certain provisions of SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation and bylaws, the SCBCA and the Business Combination Statutes may have the effect of discouraging unilateral tender offers or other attempts to take over and

16

acquire our business. These provisions might discourage some potentially interested purchaser from attempting a unilateral takeover bid for us on terms which some shareholders might favor.

The SCBCA provides that any merger, share exchange or sale of substantially all of SCANA’s assets must be approved by holders of at least two-thirds of SCANA shares outstanding. Abstentions and broker non-votes have the effect of a vote against any such proposed transaction. As described in the following paragraphs, greater or additional voting requirements may apply in certain circumstances.

SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation provide that any “business combination” involving SCANA and any “related person” or any affiliate or associate of a related person must be approved by holders of at least 80% of SCANA common stock. However, such higher vote is not required if (i) the business combination is approved by a majority of the directors who are not the related person or an affiliate or associate of the related person and who were directors immediately before the related person became a related person, (ii) the business combination is solely with a subsidiary of SCANA and does not have the effect of increasing the voting power of the related person or (iii) the business combination satisfies certain minimum price and other standards and no “extraordinary event” occurs after the related person becomes a related person and prior to the business combination, all as described in SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation.

For purposes of these provisions:

• a “related person” means any person (with certain exceptions) who is the beneficial owner of more than 10% of SCANA common stock;

• a “business combination” means any of the following transactions, when entered into by SCANA or a subsidiary of SCANA with, or upon a proposal by or on behalf of, a related person: (a) a merger or completion of a plan of share exchange of SCANA or any subsidiary, (b) the sale, lease, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition other than in the ordinary course of business of assets of SCANA or any subsidiary having an aggregate fair market value of $10 million or more, (c) the issuance or transfer by SCANA or any subsidiary of any securities of SCANA or that subsidiary, other than proportionately to all SCANA shareholders or such subsidiary, (d) the adoption of any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of SCANA, (e) a reclassification of securities, recapitalization or other transaction (whether or not involving a related person) which has the effect of increasing the voting power of a related person in the capital stock of SCANA or any subsidiary, or (f) any agreement, contract or other arrangement providing directly or indirectly for any of the foregoing; and

• an “extraordinary event” means, as to any business combination and any related person, any of the following events that is not approved by a majority of all SCANA directors who are not related persons or affiliates, associates or representatives of related persons and who were directors immediately prior to the time such related person became a related person, including but not limited to: (a) any reduction in the annual rate of dividends on SCANA common stock or failure to increase such annual rate to reflect any reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization or any similar transaction that reduces the number of outstanding shares of SCANA common stock, (b) the receipt by a related person of any direct or indirect benefit from any loans, advances, guarantees, pledges or other financial assistance or any tax credits or other tax advantages provided by SCANA or its subsidiaries, whether in anticipation of or in connection with the business combination or otherwise or (c) any increase in the number of shares of common stock that the related person owns, except in a transaction that does not increase the related person’s percentage of ownership thereof.

The Business Combination Statutes contain several provisions relating to transactions with interested shareholders (holders of more than 10% of the voting power of a corporation’s outstanding voting shares or any person who currently is or was within the two years prior to such transaction an affiliate or associate of such interested shareholder). The Business Combination Statutes prohibit a South Carolina corporation from engaging in a business combination of the type described in the foregoing paragraph (except that only such sales, leases, mortgages, pledges, transfers or other dispositions of assets which represent at least ten percent of the assets, earning power or net income, determined on a consolidated basis, or aggregate market value of the outstanding shares, of such corporation shall be taken into account) with an interested shareholder unless such business combination meets the requirements of the corporation’s articles of incorporation and either (i) is approved by (a) such corporation’s board of directors prior to the date the interested shareholder first becomes an interested shareholder (“share acquisition date”), or (b) affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting shares not beneficially owned by the interested shareholder (or any affiliate or associate thereof), at a meeting called for that purpose no earlier than two years after the interested shareholder’s share acquisition date, or (ii) satisfies certain minimum price and other standards described in the Business Combination Statutes. However, if such business combination occurs during the two years following the interested shareholder’s share acquisition date,

17

such business combination must also be approved by a majority of disinterested directors. For purposes of these provisions, a director of a corporation is disinterested if the director is not a present or former officer or employee of such corporation. The Business Combination Statutes permit corporations to opt out of the business combinations provisions. SCANA has not opted out.

The Business Combination Statutes also contain provisions regulating certain control share acquisitions, which are transactions causing the voting strength of any person acquiring beneficial ownership of shares of a South Carolina public corporation to meet or exceed certain threshold voting percentages (20%, 33 1/3%, or 50%). Shares acquired in a control share acquisition have no voting rights unless the voting rights are granted by a majority vote of all outstanding shares other than those held by the acquiring person or any officer or employee-director of the corporation. The acquiring person may require that a special meeting of the shareholders be held to consider the grant of voting rights to the shares acquired in the control share acquisition.

The Business Combination Statutes permit a South Carolina corporation to redeem the shares purchased by an acquiring person in a control share acquisition if so authorized in a corporation’s articles of incorporation or bylaws before a control share acquisition has occurred, and if the acquiring person fails to deliver a statement to such corporation listing information required by the Business Combination Statutes or if the shareholders vote not to grant voting rights to the acquiring person. Neither SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation nor our bylaws contain such authorizations. The Business Combination Statutes permit corporations to opt out of the control share acquisition provisions. SCANA has not opted out.

SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation also require the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of SCANA’s common stock before SCANA may purchase any outstanding shares of its common stock from any person known by SCANA to be an owner of more than three percent of SCANA’s common stock, which we refer to as a selling shareholder, who has purchased or agreed to purchase any of such shares within the most recent two-year period at a price known by SCANA to be above “market price” (unless SCANA purchases such shares on the same terms as a result of an offer by SCANA to purchase all of the outstanding shares of SCANA common stock). For purposes of the vote required to approve such transaction with a selling shareholder, the shares of SCANA common stock held by such selling shareholder shall be counted as having abstained regardless of how they have been voted. For purposes of these provisions, “market price” means the highest closing sale price, during the 30-day period immediately preceding the date in question, of a share of SCANA common stock on the composite tape for New York Stock Exchange issues.

DESCRIPTION OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS

General

SCE&G will issue the Bonds in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of April 1, 1993, as supplemented (the “Mortgage”), between SCE&G and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (successor to NationsBank of Georgia, National Association), as trustee (the "Bond Trustee"). The term "Bonds" in this prospectus also includes all other debt securities issued and outstanding under the Mortgage. A copy of the Mortgage has been incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. The information under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS" briefly outlines some of the provisions of the Mortgage. Please review the Mortgage that we filed with the SEC for a full statement of those provisions. See "WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION" on how to obtain a copy of the Mortgage. You may also review the Mortgage at the Bond Trustee's offices at 200 Ashford Center North, Suite 550, Atlanta, Georgia 30338.

Capitalized terms used and defined under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS" have the meanings given such terms as defined herein. Capitalized terms used under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS" which are not otherwise defined in this prospectus have the meanings given those terms in the Mortgage. The summaries under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS" are not detailed. Whenever particular provisions of the Mortgage or terms defined in the Mortgage are referred to, those statements are qualified by reference to the Mortgage. References to article and section numbers under this heading "DESCRIPTION OF THE FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS," unless otherwise indicated, are references to article and section numbers of the Mortgage.

Provisions of a Particular Series

The Bonds of a series need not be issued at the same time, bear interest at the same rate or mature on the same date. Unless otherwise provided in the terms of a series, a series may be reopened, without notice to or consent of any holder of

18

outstanding Bonds, for issuances of additional Bonds of that series. Each prospectus supplement relating to a series of Bonds which accompanies this prospectus will set forth the following information to describe the series of Bonds, unless the information is the same as the information included in this section:

• the title of the series of Bonds;

• the aggregate principal amount and any limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the series of Bonds;

• the date or dates on which the principal of the series of Bonds will be payable, and any right that we have to change the date on which principal is payable;

• the rate or rates at which the series of Bonds will bear interest, if any (or the method of calculating the rate);

• the date or dates from which the interest will accrue;

• the dates on which the interest will be payable ("Interest Payment Dates");

• the record dates for the interest payable on the Interest Payment Dates;

• any option on our part to redeem the series of Bonds and redemption terms and conditions;

• any obligation on our part to redeem or purchase the series of Bonds in accordance with any sinking fund or analogous provisions or at the option of the holder and the relevant terms and conditions for that redemption or purchase;

• the denominations of the series of Bonds, if other than $1,000 and integral multiples thereof;

• if the amount of the principal of or premium (if any) or interest on the series of Bonds is determined with reference to an index or other facts or events ascertainable outside of the Mortgage, the manner in which such amount may be determined;

• any variation to the definition of "Business Day" as defined in the Mortgage;

• the portion of the principal payable upon acceleration of maturity, if other than the entire principal amount;

• whether the series of Bonds is subject to a book-entry system of transfers and payments; and

• any other particular terms of the series of Bonds and of its offering. (Section 201)

Payment of Bonds; Transfers; Exchanges

We will pay any interest which is due on each New Bond to the person in whose name that New Bond is registered as of the close of business on the record date relating to the Interest Payment Date. (Section 207) However, we will pay interest which is payable when the Bonds mature (whether the Bonds mature on their stated date of maturity, the date the Bonds are redeemed or otherwise) to the person to whom the relevant principal payment on the Bonds is to be paid.

We will pay principal of, and any premium and interest on, the Bonds at our office or agency in Atlanta, Georgia (currently, the Bond Trustee). The applicable prospectus supplement for any series of Bonds will specify any other place of payment and any other paying agent. We may change the place at which the Bonds will be payable, may appoint one or more additional paying agents (including us) and may remove any paying agent, all at our discretion. (Section 702)

Except as provided in a prospectus supplement, if principal of or premium (if any) or interest on the Bonds is payable on a day which is not a Business Day, payment thereof may be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest will accrue as a result of the delayed payment. (Section 116)

"Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions or trust companies in Atlanta, Georgia are generally authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to remain closed. (Section 101)

19

You may transfer or exchange the Bonds for other Bonds of the same series, in authorized denominations, and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, at our office or agency in Atlanta, Georgia (currently, the Bond Trustee). At our discretion, we may change the place for registration and transfer of the Bonds, and we may appoint one or more additional security registrars (including us) and remove any security registrar. The prospectus supplement will identify any additional place for registration of transfer and any additional security registrar. You are not responsible for paying a service charge for any transfer or exchange of the Bonds, but you may have to pay a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of the Bonds. (Section 205)

Redemption

The Bonds are subject to redemption, as set forth in the relevant prospectus supplement, only upon notice by mail (unless waived) not less than 30 days (or such other period set forth in the relevant prospectus supplement) prior to the redemption date. If less than all the Bonds of a series are to be redeemed, the particular Bonds to be redeemed will be selected by the method as shall be provided for any particular series, or in the absence of any such provision, by any method as the security registrar deems fair and appropriate. (Sections 109, 903 and 904)

We may, in any notice of redemption, make any redemption conditional upon receipt by the Bond Trustee, on or prior to the date fixed for redemption, of money sufficient to pay the redemption price. If the Bond Trustee has not received that money, we will not be required to redeem those Bonds and we will then give notice to that effect. (Section 904)

Security

General

The Bonds of each series will be equally and ratably secured under the Mortgage. The Bonds are secured by the lien of the Mortgage on substantially all of our properties used in the generation, purchase, transmission, distribution and sale of electricity which have not been released from, or transferred not subject to, the lien of the Mortgage, and any other property which we may elect to subject to the lien of the Mortgage. (Granting Clauses)

If we merge or are consolidated with another corporation and certain conditions set forth in the Mortgage are satisfied, the existing mortgage or deed of trust or similar indenture entered into by such corporation may be designated as a "Class A Mortgage" and bonds issued thereunder would be "Class A Bonds" for purpose of the Mortgage. In that event, the Bonds will be secured, additionally, by such Class A Bonds as may be issued under the Class A Mortgage and deposited with the Bond Trustee and by the lien of the Mortgage, which lien would be junior to the lien of Class A Mortgage with respect to the property subject to such Class A Mortgage. (Section 1206) Presently, we have no Class A Bonds outstanding.

Lien of the Mortgage

The lien of the Mortgage is subject to the prior first mortgage lien of a Class A Mortgage, if any, liens on after-acquired property existing at the time of acquisition and various permitted liens, including:

• tax liens, mechanics', materialmen's and similar liens and certain employees' liens, in each case, which are not delinquent or which are being contested,

• certain judgment liens and easements, reservations and rights of others (including governmental entities) in, and defects of title to, the property subject to the lien of the Mortgage which do not materially impair its use by us,

• certain leases, and

• certain other liens (including but not limited to liens which are immaterial to our operations) and encumbrances. (Granting Clauses and Section 101)

The following, among other things, are excepted from the lien of the Mortgage:

20

• cash and securities not held under the Mortgage,

• contracts, leases and other agreements, bills, notes and other instruments, receivables, claims, certain intellectual property rights and other general intangibles,

• automotive and similar vehicles, movable equipment, and railroad, marine and flight equipment,

• all goods, stock in trade, wares and merchandise held for sale in the ordinary course of business,

• fuel (including nuclear fuel assemblies), materials, supplies and other personal property consumable in the operation of our business,

• portable equipment,

• furniture and furnishings,

• computers, machinery and equipment used exclusively for corporate administrative or clerical purposes,

• electric energy, gas, steam, water and other products generated, produced or purchased,

• substances mined, extracted or otherwise separated from the land and all rights thereto, leasehold interests, and

• with certain exceptions, all property which is located outside of the State of South Carolina or Columbia County, Georgia. (Granting Clauses)

The Mortgage contains provisions subjecting (with certain exceptions and limitations and subject to the prior lien of a Class A Mortgage, if any, and the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code) after-acquired electric utility property to the lien of the Mortgage. (Granting Clauses) Notwithstanding the foregoing, it may be necessary to comply with applicable recording requirements to perfect such lien on after-acquired electric utility property.

The Mortgage provides that the Bond Trustee has a lien upon the property subject to the lien of the Mortgage, for the payment of its compensation and expenses. This Bond Trustee's lien is prior to the lien on behalf of the holders of the Bonds. (Section 1607)

Issuance of Bonds

The maximum principal amount of Bonds which we may issue under the Mortgage is unlimited. Under the Mortgage, Bonds may be authenticated and delivered, upon receipt by the Bond Trustee of a supplemental indenture, a board resolution or an officer's certificate pursuant thereto, together with a company order to the Bond Trustee, an opinion of counsel and an officer's certificate, subject to the further requirements of the Mortgage described below. (Sections 201 and 301)

We may issue Bonds of any series from time to time on the basis of, and in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding the sum of:

• the aggregate principal amount of Class A Bonds issued and delivered to the Bond Trustee and designated by us as the basis for such issuance,

• 70% of the amount of Unfunded Net Property Additions (generally defined as Property Additions (net of retirements) which have not been made or deemed to have been made the basis of the authentication and delivery of Bonds or used for other purposes under the Mortgage),

• the aggregate principal amount of retired Bonds, and

• cash deposited with the Bond Trustee. (Sections 101, 104 and 302 and Articles Four, Five and Six)

Property Additions are generally defined to include any property subject to the lien of the Mortgage (the "Mortgaged Property") which we may elect to designate as such, except (with certain exceptions) goodwill, going concern value,

21

intangible property or any property the cost of acquisition or construction of which is properly chargeable to an operating expense account. (Sections 101 and 104)

Based upon Property Additions certified to the Bond Trustee on December 19, 2017 as of November 30, 2017 (the last date of certification of Property Additions under the Mortgage), we have Unfunded Net PropertyAdditions of approximately $753.8 million, sufficient to permit the issuance of approximately $527.6 million of additional Bonds on the basis thereof. At February 28, 2018, we had $491.0 million of credits from the retirement of Bonds under the Mortgage, which may be used as the basis for the authentication of additional Bonds under the Mortgage.

With certain exceptions in the case of Bonds issued on the basis of Class A Bonds and retired Bonds as described above, we can issue Bonds only if our Adjusted Net Earnings (as defined in the Mortgage) for 12 consecutive months within the preceding 18 months is at least twice the Annual Interest Requirements (as defined in the Mortgage) on:

• all Bonds at the time outstanding,

• the Bonds then applied for, and

• all outstanding Class A Bonds, if any, other than Class A Bonds held by the Bond Trustee under the Mortgage. (Sections 103, 301, 302 and 501)

Release of Property

We may obtain the release of property from the lien of the Mortgage either upon the basis of an equal amount of Unfunded Net Property Additions or upon the basis of the deposit of cash or a credit for retired Bonds. We may also obtain the release of property upon the basis of the release of the property from the lien of a Class A Mortgage, if any. (Article Ten)

Withdrawal of Cash

We may withdraw cash deposited as the basis for the issuance of Bonds and cash representing certain payments in respect of Class A Bonds, if any, designated as the basis for the issuance of Bonds or the withdrawal of cash ("Designated Class A Bonds") upon the basis of (1) Unfunded Net Property Additions in an amount equal to ten-sevenths of such cash, (2) an equal amount of retired Bonds or (3) an equal amount of Class A Bonds which are not Designated Class A Bonds. (Sections 601 and 1202) In addition, we may withdraw cash upon the basis of (a) an equal amount of Unfunded Net Property Additions, or (b) ten-sevenths of the amount of retired Bonds, or may apply such cash to (y) the purchase of Bonds (at prices not exceeding ten-sevenths of the principal amount thereof) or (z) the redemption or payment at stated maturity of Bonds. (Sections 601 and 1005)

Modification of Mortgage

We may, without the consent of any holders of outstanding Bonds, enter into supplemental indentures for, including but not limited to, the following purposes:

• to add to our covenants for the benefit of the holders or to surrender a right or power conferred upon us in the Mortgage,

• to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of the Mortgage, or to subject to the lien of the Mortgage additional property,

• to establish the form or terms of any series of Bonds,

• to make any other changes to or eliminate provision of the Mortgage required or contemplated by the Trust Indenture Act, or

• to make certain other modifications, generally of a ministerial or immaterial nature. (Section 1701)

We may amend the Mortgage for other purposes only with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Bonds then outstanding, considered as one class, unless such amendment directly affects the rights of the holders of Bonds of one or more, but less than all, series, in which case only the consent of the holders of a majority in

22

principal amount of the affected series of the Bonds then outstanding, considered as one class, need be obtained. However, without the consent of the holder of each affected outstanding Bond, we may not amend the Mortgage for the following purposes:

• to change the stated maturity of the principal of, or any installment of principal of or interest on, any Bond or to reduce the principal amount, the interest rate of, any other amount payable in respect of or any premium payable on the redemption of any Bond;

• to reduce the principal amount of any Bond which is a Discount Security (as defined in the Mortgage) that would be due upon a declaration of acceleration of that Bond's maturity;

• to change the currency of any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any Bond;

• to impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or with respect to any Bond after the stated maturity or redemption date of that Bond;

• to permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to the lien of the Mortgage with respect to all or substantially all of the Mortgage Property or terminate the lien of the Mortgage on all or substantially all of the Mortgaged Property, or otherwise deprive such holder of the benefit of the security of the lien of the Mortgage;

• reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding Bonds of any series for which the consent of the holders is required to modify or amend the Mortgage or to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture, or reduce certain quorum or voting requirements of the Mortgage; or

• to modify the foregoing requirements or reduce the percentage of outstanding Bonds necessary to modify other provisions of the Mortgage or waive any past default thereunder. (Section 1702)

Events of Default

Each of the following events is an Event of Default under the Mortgage:

• We fail to make payments of principal or premium within three Business Days, or interest within 60 days, after the due date,

• We fail to perform or breach any other covenant or warranty for a period of 90 days after notice,

• We file for bankruptcy or certain other events involving insolvency, receivership or bankruptcy occur, or

• We default under any Class A Mortgage. (Section 1101)

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, either the Bond Trustee or the Holders of 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds may declare the principal amount of all of the Outstanding Bonds to be immediately due and payable. After the declaration of acceleration has been made, but before the sale of any of the Mortgaged Property and before the Bond Trustee has obtained a judgment or decree for payment of money, the Event of Default giving rise to such declaration of acceleration will be deemed to be waived, and such declaration and its consequences will be rescinded and annulled, if we (a) pay to the Bond Trustee all overdue interest, principal and any premium on any Outstanding Bonds and (b) cure any other such Event of Default. (Sections 1102 and 1117)

The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Bonds may direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for the enforcement of the Mortgage available to the Bond Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Bond Trustee. No Holder of any Bond has the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Mortgage, or for the appointment of a receiver or for any other remedy thereunder, unless:

• that Holder previously gave written notice of a continuing Event of Default to the Bond Trustee,

• the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Bonds have offered to the Bond Trustee reasonable indemnity against costs and liabilities and requested that the Bond Trustee take action,

23

• the Bond Trustee declined to take action for 60 days, and

• the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Outstanding Bonds have given no inconsistent direction during such 60-day period;

provided, however, that each Holder of a Bond has the right to enforce payment of that Bond when due. (Sections 1111, 1112 and 1116)

In addition to the rights and remedies provided in the Mortgage, the Bond Trustee may exercise any right or remedy available to the Bond Trustee in its capacity as the owner and holder of Class A Bonds, if any, which arises as a result of a default under any Class A Mortgage. (Section 1119)

Defeasance; Satisfaction and Discharge

Upon receipt by the Bond Trustee of moneys or Eligible Obligations (as defined in the Mortgage), or both, sufficient to pay when due the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, due and to become due on the Bonds together with a company order and opinion of counsel required by the Mortgage, the holders of the Bonds or portions thereof in respect of which such deposit was made will no longer be entitled to the benefit of certain of our covenants under the Mortgage, and the Bond Trustee will, upon receipt of a company order as required by the Mortgage, will acknowledge in writing that such Bonds or portions thereof are deemed to have been paid for purposes of the Mortgage and that our entire indebtedness in respect of the Mortgage has been deemed to have been satisfied and discharged. Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of any Bonds as described above, certain of our obligations and the obligations of the Bond Trustee shall survive. (Section 1301)

Restrictions on Payment of Dividends

The Mortgage prohibits us from declaring and paying dividends on any shares of our common stock except from either (1) the excess (the "Surplus") of our net assets over our Capital (as defined herein) or (2) if there is no Surplus, our net profits for the fiscal year in which the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year; provided, that no dividends may be declared if and while our Capital is significantly impaired as described in the Mortgage. "Capital" is defined in the Mortgage to mean the part of the consideration we received for any shares of our capital stock as determined by our board of directors to be capital or, if our board has not made such a determination, the aggregate par amount of shares having a par value plus the amount of consideration for such shares without par value. All of the outstanding shares of our common stock are held of record by SCANA. (Section 711)

Evidence of Compliance and Indemnification of Bond Trustee

The Trust Indenture Act requires that we give the Bond Trustee, at least annually, a brief statement as to our compliance with the conditions and covenants under the Mortgage and periodically deliver reports, information and other documents to the Bond Trustee and file certain documents with the SEC. (Article Eight)

The Bond Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by the Mortgage at the request or direction of any Holder pursuant to the Mortgage, unless such Holder shall have offered to the Bond Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. (Section 1603)

Our Relationship with the Bond Trustee

The Bond Trustee and/or one or more of its affiliates, may be lenders under our, or our subsidiaries' or affiliates', credit agreements and may provide other commercial banking, investment banking and other services to us and/or our subsidiaries or affiliates. The Bond Trustee will be permitted to engage in other transactions with us and/or our subsidiaries or affiliates; however, if the Bond Trustee acquires any conflicting interest, as defined in the Trust Indenture Act, it must eliminate the conflict or resign.

BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM

If provided in the applicable prospectus supplement, except under the circumstances described therein, we will issue each of the Notes or Bonds sold pursuant to this prospectus (the "Securities") as one or more global certificates (each a "Global Certificate"), each of which will represent beneficial interests in the Securities. We will deposit

24

those Global Certificates with, or on behalf of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”) or another depository which we subsequently designate (collectively, the "Depository") relating to the Securities, and register them in the name of a nominee of the Depository.

So long as the Depository, or its nominee, is the registered owner of a Global Certificate, the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the owner of that Global Certificate. We will make payments of principal of, any premium, and interest on the Global Certificate to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of that Global Certificate. Except as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, owners of a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate will not be entitled to have any individual Securities registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of any Securities and will not be considered the owners of Securities.

Accordingly, to exercise any of the rights of the registered owners of the Securities, each person holding a beneficial interest in a Global Certificate must rely on the procedures of the Depository. If that person is not a DTC participant, then that person must also rely on procedures of the DTC participant through which that person holds its interest.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We may sell securities to one or more underwriters or dealers for public offering and sale by them, or we may sell the securities described in this prospectus to investors directly or through agents. The prospectus supplement relating to the securities being offered will set forth the terms of the offering and the method of distribution, and will identify any firms acting as underwriters, dealers or agents in connection with the offering, including:

• the name or names of any agents or underwriters;

• the purchase price of the securities and the proceeds to us from the sale;

• any underwriting discounts, sales commissions and other items constituting underwriters' compensation;

• any public offering price;

• any commissions payable to agents;

• any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

• any securities exchange or market on which the securities may be listed.

Only those underwriters identified in the applicable prospectus supplement are deemed to be underwriters in connection with the securities offered in the applicable prospectus supplement.

We may distribute the securities from time to time in one or more transactions at a fixed price or prices, which may be changed, or at prices determined as the applicable prospectus supplement specifies. We may sell securities through forward contracts or similar arrangements. In connection with the sale of securities, underwriters, dealers or agents may be deemed to have received compensation from us in the form of underwriting discounts or commissions and also may receive commissions from securities purchasers for whom they may act as agent. Underwriters may sell the securities to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriters or commissions from the purchasers for whom they may act as agent.

We may sell the securities directly or through agents we designate from time to time. Any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities covered by this prospectus will be named in a prospectus supplement relating to such securities. Commissions payable by us to agents will be set forth in a prospectus supplement relating to the

25

securities being offered. Unless otherwise indicated in a prospectus supplement, any such agents will be acting on a best-efforts basis for the period of their appointment.

Sales of the Common Stock may be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on The New York Stock Exchange or sales made to or through a market maker other than on an exchange.

Some of the underwriters, dealers or agents and some of their affiliates who participate in the securities distribution may engage in other transactions with, and perform other services for, us and our subsidiaries or affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

Any underwriting or other compensation which we pay to underwriters or agents in connection with the securities offering, and any discounts, concessions or commissions which underwriters allow to dealers, will be set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. Underwriters, dealers and agents participating in the securities distribution may be deemed to be underwriters, and any discounts and commissions they receive and any profit they realize on the resale of the securities may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Underwriters, and their controlling persons, and agents may be entitled, under agreements entered into with us, to indemnification against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The South Carolina Business Corporation Act of 1988 (the “SCBCA”) permits a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers against liability incurred in all proceedings if such directors and officers (i) conducted themselves in good faith, (ii) reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in their official capacities with the corporation, that their conduct was in the corporation’s best interest and, in all other cases, that their conduct was at least not opposed to its best interest or, in the case of conduct with respect to an employee benefit plan, for a purpose reasonably believed to be in the interests of the participants and beneficiaries of such plan, and (iii) in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful; provided, however, such directors and officers may not be indemnified in connection with a proceeding in which they are adjudged liable to the corporation or any other proceeding charging that such directors or officers received any improper personal benefit in which they are adjudged liable on that basis.

SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation provide that SCANA’s directors will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors except for (i) any breach of their duty of loyalty to SCANA or its shareholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve gross negligence, intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) authorizing any illegal dividends or redemptions or (iv) any transaction from which the director derived improper personal benefit. This provision applies only to claims against directors arising out of their role as directors and not in any other capacity. Directors remain liable for violations of the federal securities laws, and SCANA retains the right to pursue legal remedies other than monetary damages, such as an injunction or rescission for breach of the director’s duty of care.

SCANA has entered into an indemnification agreement with each of its directors and certain of its officers and its subsidiaries’ officers. The indemnification agreements generally provide that SCANA will indemnify each of the covered directors and officers for claims arising in such person’s capacity as a director, officer, employee or other agent of SCANA or its subsidiaries, including SCE&G, provided that, among other things, such director and/or officer acted in good faith and with a view to the best interests of the registrant and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable grounds for believing that his or her conduct was unlawful. The indemnification agreements also provide for payment for or reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred by an indemnitee who is a party to a proceeding in advance of final disposition of the proceeding under certain circumstances.

29

In addition, SCANA’s restated articles of incorporation eliminate or limit the liability of its directors only to the maximum extent permitted by the SCBCA or any successor law or laws, and provides that any repeal or modification of such protection by the SCANA shareholders shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the corporation existing at the time of such repeal or modification.

SCANA has purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies. Within the limits of their coverage, the policies insure (1) the directors and officers of SCANA against certain losses resulting from claims against them in their capacities as directors and officers to the extent that such losses are not indemnified by SCANA and (2) SCANA to the extent that it indemnifies such directors and officers for losses as permitted under the laws of South Carolina.

Item 16. Exhibits

Exhibits required to be filed with this registration statement are listed in the following Exhibit Index. Certain of such exhibits which have heretofore been filed with the SEC and which are designated by reference to their exhibit numbers in prior filings are hereby incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof.

Item 17. Undertakings

(a)    Each of the undersigned registrants 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 the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)    to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

Provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by such 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, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of 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.

30

(3)    To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4)        That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i)Each prospectus filed by such registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(ii)    Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x), for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date it is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(5)    That, for the purpose of determining liability of such registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

Each of the undersigned registrants undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the applicable undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the applicable undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer to sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)    Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the applicable undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)    Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the applicable undersigned registrant or used or referred to by such undersigned registrant;

(iii)    The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the applicable undersigned registrant or their securities provided by or on behalf of such undersigned registrant; and

(iv)    Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the applicable undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

31

(6)        To file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.

(b)        The undersigned registrants hereby undertake that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrants’ annual reports pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement 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 registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrants have 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 registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrants 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 registrants 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.

MEDIUM TERM NOTES

1.This is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness of the Company (herein called the "Securities") of a series hereinafter specified as issued and to be issued under an indenture dated as of November 1, 1989, as supplemented (herein called the "Indenture"), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (successor to The Bank of New York), as trustee (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and Resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company adopted or indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any), may be subject to different covenants and Events of Default, and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided. This Note is one of a series of Securities of the Company designated as its Medium Term Notes (herein called the "Notes"). The Notes of this series may be issued at various times with different maturity dates and different principal repayment provisions, may bear interest at different rates, may be payable in different currencies and may otherwise vary, all as provided in the Indenture.

2.A.Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the Regular Record Date with respect to any Interest Payment Date (as defined below) shall be the date 15 calendar days immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, whether or not such date shall be a Business Day. Interest which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for on each Interest Payment Date specified above will be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable at Maturity shall be paid to the Person to whom the principal hereof is payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and an Interest Payment Date or on an Interest Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date. Any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest required to be made on this Note on a day that is not a Business Day need not be made on such day, but will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such day, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment, except as may be otherwise contemplated by the Base Rate specified on the face hereof for any Floating Rate Note. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof on such Regular Record Date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than ten calendar days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully described in said Indenture. For purposes of this Note, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is not a day on which banking institutions in Washington, D.C., or in New York, New York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed, except as may be otherwise contemplated by the Base Rate specified on the face hereof for any Floating Rate Note. In connection with any calculations of the rate of interest on this Note, all percentages will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point being rounded upwards.

B.If this is a Fixed Rate Note, the Company promises to pay interest on the Principal Amount shown on the face hereof at the Interest Rate per annum shown on the face hereof until such Principal Amount is paid or made available for payment. Unless otherwise provided on the face hereof, the Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each ________ 1 and ___________ 1 (each an "Interest Payment Date"), and at Maturity. Interest will accrue from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Original Issue Date shown on the face hereof, to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The amount of such interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

C.If this is a Floating Rate Note, the Company promises to pay interest on the Principal Amount shown on the face hereof at the rate per annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate shown on the face hereof until the first Interest Reset Date shown on the face hereof following the Original Issue Date specified on the face hereof and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the applicable interest rate formula based on the Base Rate specified on the face hereof, until the Principal Amount hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. The Company will pay interest monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified on the face hereof under the "Interest Payment Period," commencing with the first Interest Payment Date specified on the face hereof next succeeding the Original Issue Date, and at Maturity. Unless otherwise provided on the face hereof, the dates on which interest will be payable (each an "Interest Payment Date") will be, in the case of Floating Rate Notes with a monthly Interest Payment Period, the third Wednesday of each month; in the case of Floating Rate Notes with a quarterly Interest Payment Period, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December; in the case of Floating Rate Notes with a semi-annual Interest Payment Period, the third Wednesday of the two months specified on the face hereof; and in the case of Floating Rate Notes with an annual Interest Payment Period, the third Wednesday of the month specified on the face hereof.

The interest payable on a Floating Rate Note on each Interest Payment Date and at Maturity will include accrued interest from and including the Original Issue Date or from but excluding the last date in respect of which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date; provided, however, and except as may be otherwise contemplated by the Base Rate specified on the face hereof, that if the Interest Reset Period is daily or weekly, the interest payable on each Interest Payment Date, other than at Maturity, will include accrued interest from and including the Original Issue Date or from but excluding the last date in respect of which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to and including the day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, and the interest payable at Maturity will include accrued interest from and including the Original Issue Date or from but excluding the last date in respect of which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding the Maturity Date. Such accrued interest will be calculated by multiplying the Principal Amount hereof by an accrued interest factor. The accrued interest factor shall be computed by adding the interest factor calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, by the actual number of days in the year, or otherwise depending on the Base Rate specified on the face hereof. The interest rate in effect on each day will be (a) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate with respect to the Interest Determination Date with respect to such Interest Reset Date or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate with respect to the Interest Determination Date pertaining to the next preceding Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect from the Original Issue Date to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate shown on the face hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this is a Floating Rate Note, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, shown on the face hereof. In addition, the interest rate hereon in no event shall be higher than the maximum rate, if any, permitted by applicable law, including United States law of general application. The Maximum Interest Rate and Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof are, in each case, expressed as a rate per annum on a simple interest basis.

2

If this is a Floating Rate Note, the interest rate on this Note will be reset daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually (such period being the "Interest Reset Period" specified on the face hereof). Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the "Interest Reset Dates" will be, if the Interest Reset Period is daily, each Business Day; if the Interest Reset Period is weekly, Wednesday of each week, except that if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the Treasury Rate, Tuesday of each week; if the Interest Reset Period is monthly, the third Wednesday of each month; if the Interest Reset Period is quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; if the Interest Reset Period is semi-annually, the third Wednesday of the two months specified on the face hereof; and if the Interest Reset Period is annually, the third Wednesday of the month of each year specified on the face hereof; provided, however, that if any Interest Reset Date otherwise would be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except as may be otherwise contemplated by the Base Rate specified on the face hereof.

The Interest Determination Date pertaining to an Interest Reset Date will be the day of the week as determined pursuant to the Base Rate specified on the face hereof.

Subject to applicable provisions of law and except as specified herein, on each Interest Reset Date the rate of interest hereon, if this is a Floating Rate Note, shall be the rate determined in accordance with the interest rate determination provisions applicable to the Base Rate specified on the face hereof.

The Company will calculate, or will appoint and enter into an agreement with an agent to calculate (the Company or such agent being the "Calculation Agent"), the interest rates on Floating Rate Notes (including this Note if it is a Floating Rate Note). Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. shall be the Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the foregoing and will confirm in writing such calculation to the Trustee and any Paying Agent promptly after each such determination. Neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall be responsible for any such calculation. At the request of the Holder hereof (if this Note is a Floating Rate Note), the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date for this Note. All determinations of interest rates by the Calculation Agent, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder hereof. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the Calculation Date pertaining to an Interest Determination Date shall be the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date, or if not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day.

3.The authorized denominations of Notes will be $1,000 and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000.

4.Each Note will be issued initially as either a Book-Entry Note or a Certificated Note. Only Registered Notes may be issued as Book-Entry Notes, and such Notes will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes and, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, will not otherwise be issuable as Certificated Notes.

5.Payments of interest (other than interest payable at Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register on the applicable Record Date. The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon payable at Maturity will be paid in immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the office or agency of the Company (currently the Trustee) located in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York.

6. If so specified on the face hereof, this Note may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after the Initial Redemption Date shown on the face hereof and prior to the Maturity Date, upon not less than 30 calendar days prior notice given as provided in the Indenture, at the Redemption Price shown on the face hereof, together in each case with accrued interest, if any, to the relevant redemption date, but interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such relevant redemption date will be payable to the holder of this Note, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates, all as provided in the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture, if less than all of the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Company shall select the tenor and terms of the Notes to be redeemed. If less than all of the Outstanding Notes of like tenor and terms are to be redeemed, the particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee not more than 60 calendar days prior to the relevant redemption date from the Outstanding Notes of like tenor and terms not previously called for redemption. Such selection shall be of principal amounts equal to the minimum authorized denominations for such Notes or any integral multiple thereof. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, such selection shall be made by any method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. The notice of such redemption shall specify which Notes are to be redeemed. In the event of redemption of this Notes in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

7.The Company may, at any time, purchase Notes at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may, at its discretion, be held, resold or surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.

8.This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund.

9.As provided in the Indenture, and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of different authorized denominations as requested by the Holder.

10.As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registerable on the Security Register of the Company upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

11.Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

3

12.If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes of this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

13.In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated, destroyed, stolen or lost and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft or destruction hereof (together with such indemnity and such other documents or proof as may be required by the Company or the Trustee) shall be delivered to the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee, a new Registered Note of like tenor and principal amount will be issued by the Company in exchange for, or in lieu of, this Note. All expenses and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Note shall be borne by the Holder of this Note.

14.The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holder of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of a series to waive compliance on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon the Note.

Holders of Securities may not enforce their rights pursuant to the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

15.No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or an indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future of the Company or of any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

16.All terms used in this Note not otherwise defined in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

17.This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made and to be performed solely in the State of New York, and for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of said State without regard to the conflicts of law rules of said State.

SOUTH CAROLINA ELECTRIC & GAS COMPANY, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of South Carolina (hereinafter called the "Company," which term shall include any successor corporation as defined in the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the Registered Owner, or to registered assigns, the Principal Amount on the Maturity Date specified above, or upon earlier redemption, or required repayment, as described below, and to pay interest thereon at the Interest Rate specified above (calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months), semi-annually on the ___________ day of ________ and _______ in each year and on the Maturity Date (each an interest payment date), from the Original Interest Accrual Date specified above or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid, commencing __________, in coin or currency of the United States of America which at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts, at the office or agency of the Company in Atlanta, Georgia, on the interest payment dates in each year, until the Company's obligation with respect to the payment of such principal shall have been discharged; provided, however, if the date of this Security is after a Record Date (as defined herein) with respect to any interest payment date and prior to such interest payment date, then interest shall be payable only from such interest payment date. If the Company shall default in the payment of interest due on any interest payment date, then interest shall be payable from the next preceding interest payment

date to which interest has been paid, or, if no such interest has been paid on the Securities, from the Original Interest Accrual Date.

The interest so payable on any interest payment date will, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Indenture, be paid to the person in whose name this Security is registered at the close of business (whether or not a hereafter defined Business Day) on ____________ or _________ (each, a "Record Date"), as the case may be, next preceding such interest payment date, provided, that, interest payable on the Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof shall be payable. At the option of the Company, interest may be payable by check mailed on or prior to such interest payment date to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the register of the Company.

This Security shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose or be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture until the Trustee (as defined herein) shall have signed the form of certificate endorsed hereon.

This Security is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company, issued under, pursuant to and all equally secured by an Indenture dated as of April 1, 1993, made by and between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., successor to NationsBank of Georgia, National Association, as trustee (herein sometimes called the "Trustee") (said Indenture, as supplemented and amended including the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 1, 1993, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 15, 1993 and the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 1, 2013, being hereinafter called the "Indenture"), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the property thereby mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security thereby created, the rights thereunder of the bearers or registered owners of the Securities and of the Trustee, the duties and immunities of the Trustee, the terms and conditions upon which the Securities are and are to be secured, the circumstances under which additional Securities may be issued and the definition of certain terms used herein. To the extent permitted by and as provided in the Indenture, modifications or alterations of the Indenture, and of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the Securities may be made by the Company with such affirmative vote or votes of the holders as provided in the Indenture; provided, however, that, among other things, no such modification or alteration shall be made which will affect the terms of payment of the principal at maturity of, or interest on, this Security, which are unconditional, or reduce the aforesaid percentages. The Securities may be issued in series, for various principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided.

The holder of this Security hereby consents that the Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a record date for the purpose of determining the holders of Securities of this series entitled to consent to any amendment, supplement or waiver. If a record date is fixed, those persons who are holders at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be entitled to consent to such amendment, supplement or waiver or to revoke any consent previously given, whether or not such persons continue to be holders after such record date. No such consent shall be valid or effective for more than 90 days after such record date.

[Redemption Provisions, if any, to appear here]

2

In any case where the date of maturity of interest or premium on or principal of Securities or the date fixed for redemption of any Securities shall be a day which is not a Business Day, then payment of interest, premium or principal need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on the date of maturity or the date fixed for redemption, and, in the case of such payment, no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such date of maturity or date fixed for redemption.

March 16, 2018

SCANA Corporation

100 SCANA Parkway

Cayce, South Carolina 29033

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am Senior Vice President and General Counsel of SCANA Corporation (the “Company”). I have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the Company’s proposed issuance and sale from time to time of its Medium Term Notes (the “Notes”) and its common stock (the “Common Stock”), as contemplated by the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) proposed to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on or about the date hereof for the registration of the Notes and the Common Stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), with which Registration Statement this opinion is included as an Exhibit.

In connection with the delivery of this opinion, I have examined originals or copies of (a) the Restated Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Bylaws of the Company; (b) the Registration Statement (including the prospectus forming a part thereof) and the exhibits thereto; (c) certain resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”); (d) the Indenture dated as of November 1, 1989, as supplemented (as so supplemented, the “Note Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to The Bank of New York), as trustee, and as further supplemented, if needed, by one or more supplemental indentures (each, a “Supplemental Indenture”), which Note Indenture and forms of Supplemental Indentures, if needed, are or will be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, pursuant to which the Notes are issued; (e) such other records, agreements, instruments, certificates and other documents of public officials, the Company and its officers and representatives, as I have considered necessary.

In making such examination and rendering the opinions set forth below, I have assumed without verification (i) that all documents submitted to me as originals are authentic, complete and accurate, (ii) that all signatures on documents submitted to me are genuine, (iii) that all individuals executing such documents had the requisite legal capacity, (iv) that all documents submitted to me as copies conform to authentic original documents, and (v) that any documents not yet executed will be duly executed in form(s) duly authorized and established in accordance with the action of the Board or a duly authorized committee of the Board.

To the extent that the obligations of the Company with respect to the Notes may be dependent upon such matters, I assume for purposes of this opinion that, the trustee under the Note Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture is duly qualified to engage in the activities contemplated by the Note Indenture or Supplemental Indenture; that the Note Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the trustee and

constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the trustee enforceable against the trustee in accordance with its terms; that the trustee is in compliance with respect to the performance of its obligations under the Note Indenture and all Supplemental Indentures and with all applicable laws and regulations; and that the trustee has the requisite organizational and legal power and authority to perform its obligations under the Note Indenture or all Supplemental Indentures;

The opinions expressed below are subject to, and qualified and limited by the effects of: (i) bankruptcy, fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, conservatorship and similar laws, and limitations imposed under judicial decisions related to or affecting creditors’ rights and remedies generally, (ii) general equitable principles, regardless of whether the issue of enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law (regardless of whether arising prior to, or after, the date hereof), and principles limiting the availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive relief, (iii) concepts of good faith, fair dealing and reasonableness, and (iv) the possible unenforceability under certain circumstances of provisions providing for indemnification or contribution that are contrary to public policy.  I also express no opinion concerning the enforceability of (a) the choice of New York law in any applicable Note Indenture or Supplemental Indenture, under the laws of any jurisdiction other than New York or (b) the waiver of rights or defenses contained in the documents establishing the Notes.

Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:

1. With respect to the Notes of each series, when (a) the Registration Statement, and any subsequent amendments thereto, have become effective under the Act; (b) the Note Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended; (c) the Board, or a duly authorized committee thereof, has taken such action as may be necessary to authorize the issuance and sale by the Company of the Notes of such series on the terms set forth in or contemplated by the Registration Statement, as it may be amended, and any prospectus supplement relating to the Notes of such series, and to authorize the proper officers of the Company to take such other action as may be necessary in connection with the consummation of the issuance and sale of the Notes from time to time; (d) the specific terms of each Note of such series have been determined within the authorizations referred to above, and a prospectus supplement relating to the Notes of such series has been filed with the Commission; (e) the Note Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture or other instrument thereunder to be entered into, or otherwise executed or adopted, in connection with the issuance of the Notes have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and the trustee named therein; (f) the Notes of such series have been duly executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with the corporate authorizations aforesaid and the terms of the Note Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture; and (g) the Notes of each series have been validly issued and sold, and the purchase price has been paid to the Company, in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement, as it may be amended, and any prospectus supplement related to the Notes of such series, and in accordance with the corporate authorizations aforesaid and the terms of the Note Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture, the Notes of each series will be duly authorized and will constitute

legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Note Indenture.

2. With respect to the Common Stock, when (a) the Registration Statement, and any subsequent amendments thereto, have become effective under the Act; (b) the Board, or the particular officers authorized thereby, have taken such action as may be necessary to authorize the issuance and sale of the Common Stock on the terms set forth in or contemplated by the Registration Statement, as it may be amended, and any prospectus supplement relating to the Common Stock, and to authorize the proper officers of the Company to take such other action as may be necessary in connection with the consummation of the issuance and sale of the Common Stock from time to time; (c) the specific terms of each offering of the Common Stock have been determined within the authorizations referred to above, and a prospectus supplement relating to such offering has been filed with the Commission; and (d) the Common Stock has been duly executed, registered and delivered to the purchaser or the purchasers thereof against receipt of the purchase price therefor, the Common Stock will have been duly authorized and legally and validly issued and will be fully paid and non-assessable.

I express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the federal laws of the United States and the laws of the State of South Carolina and the State of New York , except that I express no opinion as to the effect of the securities or blue sky laws of any state (including, without limitation, the States of South Carolina and New York). Each of the Note Indenture and the Notes of each series are governed by the laws of the State of New York, and in rendering my opinion as to the legality, validity and binding effect of the Notes of such series, I have relied upon the opinion of Troutman Sanders LLP with respect to matters of New York law. Except to the extent of such reliance, the opinion rendered herein is limited to the laws of the State of South Carolina and the federal laws of the United States.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Registration Statement to be filed by the Company on the date hereof. In giving the foregoing consent, I do not thereby admit that I come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.

Sincerely,

South Carolina Electric & Gas Company

100 SCANA Parkway

Cayce, South Carolina 29033

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am Senior Vice President and General Counsel of South Carolina Electric & Gas Company (the “Company”). I have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the Company’s proposed issuance and sale from time to time of its First Mortgage Bonds (the “Bonds”), as contemplated by the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) proposed to be filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on or about the date hereof for the registration of the Bonds under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), with which Registration Statement this opinion is included as an Exhibit.

In connection with the delivery of this opinion, I have examined originals or copies of (a) the Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Company; (b) the Registration Statement (including the prospectus forming a part thereof) and the exhibits thereto; (c) certain resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”); (d) the Indenture dated as of April 1, 1993, as supplemented (as so supplemented, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to NationsBank of Georgia, National Association), as trustee, and as further supplemented, if needed, by one or more supplemental indentures (each, a “Supplemental Indenture”), which Indenture and forms of Supplemental Indentures, if needed, are or will be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, pursuant to which the Bonds are issued; and (e) such other records, agreements, instruments, certificates and other documents of public officials, the Company and its officers and representatives, as I have considered necessary.

In making such examination and rendering the opinions set forth below, I have assumed without verification (i) that all documents submitted to me as originals are authentic, complete and accurate, (ii) that all signatures on documents submitted to me are genuine, (iii) that all individuals executing such documents had the requisite legal capacity, (iv) that all documents submitted to me as copies conform to authentic original documents, and (v) that any documents not yet executed will be duly executed in form(s) duly authorized and established in accordance with the action of the Board.

To the extent that the obligations of the Company with respect to the Bonds may be dependent upon such matters, I assume for purposes of this opinion that the trustee under the Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture is duly qualified to engage in the activities contemplated by the Indenture or Supplemental Indenture; that the Indenture or any Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the trustee and

constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the trustee enforceable against the trustee in accordance with its terms; that the trustee is in compliance with respect to the performance of its obligations under the Indenture and all Supplemental Indentures and with all applicable laws and regulations; and that the trustee has the requisite organizational and legal power and authority to perform its obligations under the Indenture or all Supplemental Indentures.

Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that, with respect to the Bonds of each series, when (a) the Registration Statement, and any subsequent amendments thereto, have become effective under the Act; (b) the Indenture has been qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended; (c) an appropriate order relating to such Bonds has been obtained from The Public Service Commission of South Carolina; (d) the Board has taken such action as may be necessary to authorize the issuance and sale by the Company of the Bonds of such series on the terms set forth in or contemplated by the Registration Statement, as it may be amended, and any prospectus supplement relating to the Bonds of such series, and to authorize the proper officers of the Company to take such other action as may be necessary in connection with the consummation of the issuance and sale of the Bonds from time to time; (e) the specific terms of each Bond of such series have been determined within the authorizations referred to above, and a prospectus supplement relating to the Bonds of such series has been filed with the Commission; (f) the Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture or other instrument thereunder to be entered into, or otherwise executed or adopted, in connection with the issuance of the Bonds have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and the trustee named therein; (g) the Bonds of such series have been duly executed, authenticated and delivered in accordance with the corporate and governmental authorizations aforesaid and the terms of the Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture; and (h) the Bonds of each series have been validly issued and sold, and the purchase price has been paid to the Company, in the manner contemplated by the Registration Statement, as it may be amended, and any prospectus supplement related to the Bonds of such series, and in accordance with the corporate authorizations aforesaid and the terms of the Indenture and any Supplemental Indenture, the Bonds of each series will be duly authorized and will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, subject as to enforceability to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, fair dealing and good faith, and the availability of equitable remedies such as specific performance and injunctive relief, regardless of whether such matters are considered in a proceeding at law or in equity, and will be entitled to the benefits and security of the Indenture.

In rendering this opinion I am opining only to the federal laws of the United States and the laws of the State of South Carolina. I express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the federal laws of the United States and the laws of the State of South Carolina, except that I express no opinion as to the effect of the securities or blue sky laws of any state (including, without limitation, the State of South Carolina). I express no opinion as to whether, to the extent to which, the laws of any particular jurisdiction apply to the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, the enforceability of the governing law provision contained in the Indenture.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement to be filed by the Company on the date hereof. In giving the foregoing consent, I do not thereby admit that I come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.
