                                   ITEM 1


                    DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS

Introduction


     1.   Northeast Utilities ("NU"), a public utility holding company

registered under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended

(the "Act"), and The Connecticut Light and Power Company ("CL&P"), Western

Massachusetts Electric Company ("WMECO"), Public Service Company of New

Hampshire ("PSNH"), Holyoke Water Power Company ("HWP"), Northeast Nuclear

Energy Company ("NNECO"), North Atlantic Energy Corporation ("NAEC"), The

Quinnehtuk Company ("Quinnehtuk"), The Rocky River Realty Company ("RRR"),

and HEC Inc. ("HEC"), each of which is a wholly owned subsidiary of NU

(each of NU, CL&P, WMECO, PSNH, HWP, NNECO, NAEC, Quinnehtuk, RRR and HEC

is sometimes herein called an "Applicant" and collectively all such

companies are sometimes herein called "Applicants"), hereby submit this

application/declaration (the "Application") pursuant to Sections 6, 7,

9(a), 10 and 12 of the Act and Rules 43 and 45 thereunder with respect to

the following financial transactions:



          (a) proposed short-term borrowings by the Applicants from time to

time after December 31, 1994 and on or before December 31, 1996, evidenced

(i) in the case of NU, CL&P, WMECO, PSNH, HWP, NNECO, and RRR by notes

("Short-Term Notes") issued to banks and non-bank lending institutions

(which are collectively herein called "lending institutions" or "lenders")

through formal and informal credit lines and (ii) in the case of CL&P,

WMECO and NU, by commercial paper ("Commercial Paper"); and



          (b) the continued use through December 31, 1996 of a Northeast

Utilities System Money Pool (the "Money Pool"), which is composed of

available funds loaned by the companies participating in the Money Pool and
<PAGE>
                                    -2-



borrowed by the participating companies, except NU, to assist in meeting

their respective short-term borrowing needs.  Additionally, under the terms

of the Money Pool, NU would be able to borrow funds from lending

institutions solely for the purpose of lending those funds through the

Money Pool to PSNH, NNECO, NAEC, RRR, Quinnehtuk and HEC.



The aggregate amount of each Applicant's short-term borrowings outstanding

at any time will be subject to the limits set forth in the table in

paragraph 4 and more fully described in paragraphs 20 and 21.



     2.   Except in accordance with the Act, neither NU nor any subsidiary

thereof (a) has acquired an ownership interest in an exempt wholesale

generator ("EWG") or a foreign utility company ("FUCO") as defined in

Sections 32 and 33 of the Act, or (b) now is or as a consequence of the

transactions proposed herein will become a party to, or has or will as a

consequence of the transactions proposed herein have any right under, a

service, sales, or construction contract with an exempt wholesale generator

or a foreign utility company.  None of the proceeds from the transactions

proposed herein will be used by the Companies to acquire any securities of,

or any interest in, an exempt wholesale generator or a foreign utility

company.



     The NU system is in compliance with Rule 53(a), (b), and (c), as

demonstrated by the following determinations:



     (i)  NU's aggregate investment in EWGs and FUCOs (i.e., amounts

     invested in or committed to be invested in EWGs and FUCOs, for which

     there is recourse to NU) does not exceed 50% of the NU system's
<PAGE>
                                    -3-



     consolidated retained earnings as reported for the four most recent

     quarterly periods on NU's Form 10-K and 10-Qs.



     (ii) Encoe Partners (NU's only EWG or FUCO at this time) maintains

     books and records, and prepares financial statements in accordance

     with Rule 53(a)(2).  Furthermore, NU has undertaken to provide the

     Commission access to such books and records and financial statements,

     as it may request.



     (iii)     No employees of the NU system's public utility companies

     have rendered services to Encoe Partners.



     (iv) NU has submitted (a) a copy of each Form U-1 and Rule 24

     certificate that has been filed with the Commission under Rule 53 and

     (b) a copy of Item 9 of Form U5S and Exhibits G and H thereof to each

     state regulator having jurisdiction over the retail rates of the NU

     system public utility companies.



     (v)  Neither NU nor any NU subsidiary has been the subject of a

     bankruptcy or similar proceeding unless a plan of reorganization has

     been confirmed in such proceeding.  In addition, NU's average

     consolidated retained earnings for the four most recent quarterly

     periods has not decreased by 10% or more from the average for the

     previous four quarterly periods.



     (vi) In the previous fiscal year, NU did not report operating losses

     attributable to its investment in Encoe Partners exceeding 5 percent

     of NU's consolidated retained earnings.

Current and Projected Levels of Short-Term Debt



     3.   The Applicants are currently authorized, by orders of the

Commission dated December 16, 1992, June 25, 1993 and September 13, 1994

(File No. 70-8048, HCA Rel. Nos. 25710, 25836 and 26126, respectively) to

undertake, through December 31, 1994, short-term borrowings in the form of

short-term notes, commercial paper, open account advances by NU to certain

of the other Applicants and Money Pool transactions, subject to limits on

the aggregate amount of short-term borrowings by each Applicant as ordered

therein.



     4.   The following table sets forth: (i) the outstanding short-term

debt of each Applicant as of June 30, 1994; (ii) the amount of short-term

debt estimated to be outstanding as of September 30, 1994; (iii) the

highest level of short-term debt outstanding for each Applicant during the

period January 1 to June 30, 1994; and (iv) the maximum aggregate amount of

all short-term debt proposed to be outstanding at any one time at or prior

to December 31, 1996:

</TABLE>

(1)  Includes contingencies associated with such uncertainties as (a)
     short-term debt level variances during a given month, (b) the
     possibility that CL&P, WMECO and PSNH may be required to incur costs
     for replacement power if the operating nuclear units in which they
     have interests do not perform as scheduled or budgeted, (c) the
     possibility that NNECO and NAEC may be required to provide the
     necessary funds to meet the capitalized labor and other cash
     disbursements associated with an unplanned outage, and (d) the
     possibility that planned long-term financings may not be completed in
     the amounts and at the times for which they are projected.


     5.   Subject to the applicable maximum limits, the Applicants intend

to renew and extend current short-term borrowings as they mature, to refund

such short-term borrowings with other similar short-term borrowings, to

repay such short-term borrowings or to increase the amount of their short-

term borrowings from time to time.  As described in more detail in

paragraphs 23 to 29 below, the proceeds of such borrowings will be used to

meet part of the capital requirements of the respective borrowers.

                                    -6-



 Money Pool



      6.  The Applicants propose to continue using the Money Pool, which is

administered on behalf of the Applicants by Northeast Utilities Service

Company ("NUSCO") under the direction of an officer in the NUSCO Treasury

Organization.  The Money Pool currently consists principally of surplus

funds that may be available from day to day to the Applicants, including

NU.  The funds available to the Money Pool will be loaned on a short-term

basis to those Applicants, other than NU, that have a need for short-term

funds, subject to the limitations described herein.  If no such short-term

needs match the amount of funds that are available for the period such

funds are available, the funds in the Money Pool will be invested in:



     (1)  obligations issued or guaranteed by the United States of America;



     (2)  obligations issued or guaranteed by any person controlled or

          supervised by and acting as an instrumentality of the United

          States of America pursuant to authority granted by the Congress

          of the United States;



     (3)  obligations issued or guaranteed by any state or political

          subdivision thereof, provided that such obligations are rated for

          investment purposes at not less than "A" by Moody's Investors

          Service, Inc. ("Moody's") or by Standard & Poors Corporation

          ("S&P");



     (4)  commercial paper rated not less than "P-1" by Moody's or not less

          than "A-1" by S&P; or
<PAGE>
                                    -7-





     (5)  such other instruments as are permitted by Rule 40(a)(1) under

          the Act and approved by the Massachusetts Department of Public

          Utilities (the "DPU") pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws

          Chapter 164, Section 17A and the regulations thereunder.



     7.   In addition to surplus funds, another potential component of the

Money Pool is funds borrowed by NU through the issuance of the Short-Term

Notes, by selling commercial paper or by borrowing through loans through

the NU System Facility described in paragraph 22 for the purpose of making

open account advances to certain of its subsidiaries through the Money

Pool.  NU requests that its authority for such borrowings be extended

through December 31, 1996.  The potential recipients of such open account

advances will be PSNH, NNECO, NAEC, Quinnehtuk, RRR and HEC.  Such

arrangements have in the past resulted in a reduction in borrowing costs to

the recipients because NU has access to funds at lower interest rates than

the subsidiaries listed above and/or because the transaction costs of

arranging several small financings to meet the needs of the smaller

subsidiaries are higher than the costs of arranging one larger financing by

NU.  The amounts to be borrowed by NU for the purpose of making open

account advances and to be borrowed through the Money Pool by the

recipients set forth above will also be subject to the short-term limits on

the aggregate amount outstanding for which approval is sought in this

filing.



     8.   NAEC and HEC will be entitled to borrow through the Money Pool

only if and to the extent that funds in the Money Pool attributable to

contributions from NU are available for such borrowings.  PSNH will not be
<PAGE>
                                    -8-



entitled to borrow funds through the Money Pool that are attributable to

contributions from WMECO unless and until the DPU has issued an order

authorizing WMECO to lend funds to PSNH through the Money Pool.  PSNH's

participation in the Money Pool is only expected to be as a back-up to the

PSNH Facility described in more detail in paragraph 22.  Since the PSNH

Facility requires PSNH to borrow a minimum of $10 million, PSNH's

participation in the Money Pool permits it to borrow smaller amounts

through the Money Pool and thereby better match its requirements and its

cash resources.



     9.   The Applicants request that the Commission reserve jurisdiction

over any PSNH borrowings of Money Pool funds attributable to contributions

thereto by WMECO until such time as the DPU has issued an order authorizing

such borrowings.  Without such an order, WMECO may not lend money to PSNH

through the Money Pool.  In the event that such an order is received from

the DPU, the Applicants will file a post-effective amendment hereto seeking

the necessary Commission approval.



     10.  Money Pool transactions will be designed to match, on a daily

basis, the available cash and short-term borrowing requirements of the

Applicants, thereby minimizing the need for short-term borrowings to be

made by the Applicants (other than NU) from external sources.  To this end,

it is anticipated that the short-term borrowing requirements of the

Applicants (other than NU) will be met, in the first instance, with the

proceeds of borrowings available through the Money Pool, and thereafter, to

the extent necessary, with the proceeds of external short-term borrowings,

as set forth below.  Those Applicants without access to the commercial

paper market will have priority as borrowers from the Money Pool, and only
<PAGE>
                                    -9-



PSNH, NNECO, NAEC, Quinnehtuk, RRR and HEC will be eligible to borrow

through the Money Pool from the proceeds of external borrowings by NU.  If

at any time there are funds remaining in the Money Pool after satisfaction

of the borrowing needs of the Applicants, NUSCO, as agent for the Money

Pool, will invest those funds as described in paragraph 6 and allocate the

earnings on any such investments among those Applicants providing such

excess funds on a pro rata basis according to the amount of the funds so

provided.



     11.  All borrowings from and contributions to the Money Pool,

including the open account advances, will be documented and will be

evidenced on the books of each Applicant that is borrowing from or

contributing surplus funds to the Money Pool.  Any Applicant contributing

funds to the Money Pool may withdraw those funds at any time without notice

to satisfy its daily need for funds.  Except for loans from the proceeds of

external borrowings by NU, all loans will be payable on demand, may be

prepaid by any borrowing Applicant at any time without premium or penalty

and will bear interest for both the borrower and lender, payable monthly,

equal to the daily Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the Federal

Reserve Bank of New York.  Loans from the proceeds of external borrowings

by NU will bear interest at the same rate paid by NU on its borrowings, and

no such loans may be prepaid unless NU is made whole for any additional

costs that may be incurred because of such prepayment.  NU will be fully

reimbursed for all costs that it incurs in relation to loans made to the

other Applicants.



     12.  The Applicants believe that the cost of the proposed borrowings

through the Money Pool will generally be more favorable to the borrowing
<PAGE>
                                    -10-



Applicants than the comparable cost of external short-term borrowings, and

that the yield to the Applicants contributing available funds to the Money

Pool will generally be higher than the typical yield on short-term

investments.  However, if on any given day the funds available through the

Money Pool are insufficient to satisfy the short-term borrowing

requirements of an Applicant, such Applicant may effect short-term

borrowings through lending institutions and/or through the sale of

commercial paper, if appropriate, as described below.



Short-Term Notes



     13.  The Applicants (other than NAEC, HEC and Quinnehtuk) propose to

issue Short-Term Notes pursuant to both formal and informal lines of credit

with lending institutions.  Short-Term Notes will be issued both on a

transactional basis, with a separate note evidencing each loan, and on a

so-called "grid note" basis, as described below.  



     14.  Each Short-Term Note issued on a transactional basis will be

dated the date of issue, will have a maximum term of 270 days, and will

bear interest at a fixed or floating rate as described below.  Such

Short-Term Notes will be issued no later than December 31, 1996, and will

(except as described below) be subject to prepayment at any time at the

borrower's option.  Attached as Exhibits A.1(a) through A.1(g) are typical

forms of Short-Term Notes proposed to be used by NU, CL&P, WMECO, PSNH,

HWP, NNECO and RRR, respectively.  From time to time, an Applicant may use

a different form of Short-Term Note containing customary terms to evidence

its borrowings, if necessary, to satisfy the needs of a particular lender.
<PAGE>
                                    -11-



     15.  Short-Term Notes issued on a grid note basis will be issued by an

Applicant to a particular lending institution at or prior to the first

borrowing under the grid note from that lender by the Applicant.  Each

repayment and reborrowing subsequent to the first borrowing will be

recorded on a schedule to the note without the necessity of issuing

additional notes.  Also recorded on a schedule to the note at the time of a

borrowing will be the date of the borrowing, the maturity (which may not

exceed 270 days from the date of the borrowing), the number of days the

borrowing is outstanding, the interest rate or method of determining the

interest rate, the amount of interest due, and the date of payment.  Except

as described below, borrowings on a grid note basis will be subject to

prepayment at any time at the borrower's option.  Attached as Exhibits

A.2(a) through A.2(d) are proposed forms of grid notes for NU and certain

Connecticut subsidiaries of NU (CL&P, NNECO and RRR), certain Massachusetts

subsidiaries of NU (WMECO and HWP) and PSNH.  Also attached as Exhibit A.3

is a sample form (with attachments) of an informal credit facility with a

non-bank lending institution.  The Applicants anticipate that the grid

notes and informal credit facility with lending institutions that are

actually used may vary from the forms submitted to reflect customary terms

or particular lending practices and policies of different lending

institutions but will be similar in substance to the exhibits referenced

above.



     16.  The interest rate on all Short-Term Notes will be determined on

the basis of competitive quotations from several lending institutions, and

will either be at a fixed interest rate or at a floating interest rate

determined with reference to an agreed-upon index (such as a lending

institution's prime rate, the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR),
<PAGE>
                                    -12-



certificate of deposit rates, money market rates or commercial paper

rates).  The interest rate in any case will not exceed two percentage

points above the Federal Funds Effective Rate.  The Applicants will select

the lending institution(s) from which to make a particular short-term

borrowing and determine whether to borrow at a fixed or a floating rate on

the basis of the lowest expected effective interest cost for borrowings of

comparable sizes and maturities.



     17.  Borrowings bearing floating interest rates will generally be

subject to prepayment at the borrower's option.  The Applicants believe

that many lending institutions lending funds at fixed interest rates are

engaged in "matched funding," i.e., such lenders acquire for comparable

maturities the funds that are lent to their borrowers.  Because the lenders

would remain obligated under their own borrowings from others if the

Applicants were to prepay their borrowings in advance of their scheduled

maturities, many lending institutions lending funds at fixed interest rates

stipulate that such borrowings may not be prepaid or may be prepaid only

with a premium that will make the lender whole for any losses (including

lost profits) it may incur.  Accordingly, in order to realize the benefits

of fixed interest rates when a fixed-rate borrowing is evaluated to be the

lowest cost borrowing available, the Applicants may from time to time agree

with individual lenders that such borrowings may not be prepaid or may only

be prepaid if the lender is made whole for its losses. 



     18.  The Applicants (other than NAEC, HEC and Quinnehtuk) request

authority to secure both formal and informal credit lines with a number of

lending institutions.  Formal credit lines may be subject to compensating

balance and/or fee requirements and will therefore be used only when an
<PAGE>
                                    -13-



Applicant determines that such a credit line offers advantages as compared

with other available credit options.  Compensating balance requirements

will not exceed 5% of the committed credit line amount, and fees will not

exceed .30% per annum.  Each Applicant participating in a credit line would

be able to draw funds to the exclusion of the other Applicants.  The

Applicants may change their credit lines and may obtain additional lines

over time.  The continued availability of such credit lines is subject to

the continuing review of the lending institutions.    



Commercial Paper



     19.  CL&P, WMECO and NU request authority to continue to sell

Commercial Paper publicly.  Such Commercial Paper will be issued through

The Depository Trust Company in the form of book entry notes in

denominations of not less than $50,000, of varying maturities, with no

maturity more than 270 days after the date of issue.  The Commercial Paper

will not be repayable prior to maturity.  The Commercial Paper will be sold

through a placement agent or agents in a co-managed commercial paper

program pursuant to a placement agent agreement at either the discount rate

per annum or the interest rate per annum prevailing at the date of issuance

for commercial paper of comparable quality and of the particular maturity

sold by public utility issuers thereof.  No Commercial Paper will be issued

unless the issuing Applicant believes that the effective interest cost to

the Applicant will be equal to or less than the effective interest rate at

which the applicant could issue Short-Term Notes in an amount at least

equal to the principal amount of such Commercial Paper.  The placement

agent or agents will receive a commission for the sale of the Commercial

Paper of not more than 1/8 of 1% per annum, on a discounted basis.  CL&P
<PAGE>
                                    -14-



and WMECO will publicly issue and sell Commercial Paper without

registration thereof in reliance upon the exemption set forth in Section

3(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act").  NU will publicly

issue and sell commercial paper without registration thereof in reliance

upon the exemption set forth in Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and Regulation

D thereunder.  Attached as Exhibit A.4(a) is an example of the placement

agent agreement for Commercial Paper issued by NU, and attached as Exhibit

A.4(b) is an example of the placement agent agreement for Commercial Paper

issued by CL&P and WMECO.



Proposed Limits on Short-Term Debt



     20.  The aggregate amount of short-term debt that will be outstanding

at any one time, whether evidenced by Short-Term Notes issued to lending

institutions or by Commercial Paper or through borrowings from the Money

Pool pursuant to the authority requested in this Application or through

borrowings through the previously authorized revolving credit facilities

described in paragraph 22, for which Commission authorization is being

sought will not exceed $150 million in the case of NU, $325 million in the

case of CL&P, $60 million in the case of WMECO, $175 million in the case of

PSNH, $5 million in the case of HWP, $50 million in the case of NNECO, $50

million in the case of NAEC, $22 million in the case of RRR, $8 million in

the case of Quinnehtuk, and $11 million in the case of HEC.



     21.  The aggregate amount of short-term debt that can be incurred by

CL&P and WMECO is further restricted by the provisions of their respective

preferred stocks.  CL&P and WMECO each have authorization from the holders

of their respective preferred stocks (through March 31, 2004 in the case of
<PAGE>
                                    -15-



CL&P and through February 10, 2004 in the case of WMECO) to issue

securities representing unsecured indebtedness up to a maximum of 20% of

their respective capitalizations.  Based on their respective

capitalizations as of June 30, 1994, CL&P is limited to approximately

$675,636,000 of unsecured indebtedness through short-term debt and WMECO is

limited to approximately $153,028,000.  See Exhibits J.1 and J.2,

respectively.



Revolving Credit Facilities



     22.  NU, CL&P, WMECO, HWP, NNECO and RRR are parties to a $360 million

multi-bank revolving credit facility (the "NU System Facility").  The

Commission approved that facility on November 23, 1992 in File No. 70-8052

(HCA Rel. No. 25683).  PSNH is a party to a $125 million multi-bank

revolving credit facility (the "PSNH Facility") approved by the Commission

on December 16, 1992 in File No. 70-8048 (HCA Rel. No. 25710).  The

Commission approved certain amendments to the PSNH Facility and an

extension of its term to May 14, 1996 on May 5, 1994 in File No. 70-8367

(HCA Rel. No. 26046).



Use of Proceeds



     23.  During the period from January 1, 1995 through December 31, 1996,

NU expects to use the new funds derived from short-term borrowings

authorized by the Commission pursuant to this Application (i) to make loans

or open account advances, as needed, to its subsidiary companies, (ii) to

supply funds as needed to its subsidiary companies as heretofore or

hereafter authorized by the Commission, (iii) to meet short-term cash needs
<PAGE>
                                    -16-



which may arise due to payment timing differences, and (iv) to meet other

corporate needs (including temporary shortfalls in funds to pay NU

dividends attributable to restrictions on the payment of dividends by PSNH

and NAEC to NU).  In addition, NU may, in a separate

application/declaration to the Commission, seek authority to use short-term

debt for other corporate purposes.  See Exhibit H.1 for additional details.



     24.  The funds to be derived by CL&P, WMECO and PSNH from short-term

borrowings authorized by the Commission pursuant to this Application will

be applied, together with other funds available to those Applicants, to

provide working capital and to finance their respective construction

expenditures in 1995 and 1996.  Such construction expenditures (excluding

Allowance for Funds Used During Construction and nuclear fuel) are

estimated to be $147,254,000, $33,816,000 and $27,787,000 for CL&P, WMECO

and PSNH respectively in 1995 and $140,165,000, $28,993,000 and $34,987,000

for CL&P, WMECO and PSNH respectively in 1996.  For CL&P, WMECO and PSNH,

the short-term debt forecast as set forth in the Cash Receipts and

Disbursements projections (see Exhibits H.2, H.3, H.4) assumes performance

of their respective nuclear units at certain levels.  However, should the

nuclear plants experience more unplanned outages or outages of longer

durations than are currently anticipated, the purchase of replacement power

may have to be financed on an interim basis with the proceeds from the

issuance of short-term debt.  The contingency for a three-month nuclear

outage of each subsidiary is $90 million, $21 million and $22.5 million for

CL&P, WMECO and PSNH, respectively.  PSNH may also use the proceeds from

short-term borrowings to finance anticipated settlements with certain small

power producers until such time as permanent financing for those

settlements can be obtained.  See Exhibits H.2 through H.4.

                                    -17-





     25.  NNECO will apply funds derived from short-term borrowings

authorized by the Commission pursuant to this Application and other funds

available to it for operating and maintenance expenses for the Millstone

plants and to meet its obligations with respect to four nuclear plant

control room simulators and the buildings that house them and for a

building that was recently constructed at the Millstone site to accommodate

technical staff.  See Exhibit H.6.



     26.  HWP, Quinnehtuk and RRR will apply funds derived from short-term

borrowings authorized by the Commission pursuant to this Application and

other funds available to them for operation, maintenance and construction

expenses and to meet cash needs which may arise due to timing differences. 

See Exhibits H.5 and H.8.



     27.  NAEC will apply funds derived from Money Pool borrowings

authorized by the Commission pursuant to this Application and other funds

available to it for operating and maintenance expenses for the Seabrook

nuclear generating unit, to meet short-term cash needs which may arise due

to payment and timing differences and possibly to repurchase or repay high-

cost long-term debt if such Money Pool borrowings would provide more

favorable terms to NAEC.  See Exhibit H.7.



     28.  HEC will apply funds derived from Money Pool borrowings to carry

on its operations as authorized by the Commission (HCA Rel. Nos. 25114A,

25900 and 26108) and as will be requested in applications/declarations to

be filed with the Commission in the future.  HEC will not raise funds
<PAGE>
                                    -18-



pursuant to this filing for use in future filings before approval for such

future filings is granted.  See Exhibit H.9.



     29.  Except as otherwise described herein and unless otherwise

authorized by the Commission, any short-term borrowings of the Applicants

outstanding at December 31, 1996 will either (i) be repaid from internal

cash resources or from the proceeds of long-term debt or equity financing

or (ii) remain outstanding if the Commission authorizes the Applicants to

continue such short-term borrowings after December 31, 1996.  Except as

described herein, no associate company or affiliate of the Applicants or

any affiliate of any such associate company has any material interest,

directly or indirectly, in the proposed transactions. 



                                   ITEM 2

                       FEES, COMMISSIONS AND EXPENSES



     30.  The fees, commissions and expenses paid or incurred, or to be

paid or incurred, directly or indirectly, by the Applicants are set forth

on Exhibit K hereto (to be filed by amendment).



     31.  None of such fees, commissions or expenses will be paid to any

associate company or affiliate of the Applicants except for financial and

other services to be performed at cost by NUSCO, an affiliated service

company, and except that C. Duane Blinn, a member of the firm of Day, Berry

& Howard, counsel to the Applicants, is Assistant Secretary of Connecticut

Yankee Atomic Power Company, an affiliate, and the estimate of legal fees

includes payment to be made to that firm for legal services rendered in

connection with the transactions proposed in this Application.

                                   ITEM 3

                      APPLICABLE STATUTORY PROVISIONS



     32.  Sections 6 and 7 of the Act are applicable to the issue and sale

by the Applicants of the Short-Term Notes and Commercial Paper as herein

proposed.  Section 12(b) of the Act and Rule 45 thereunder are applicable

to the proposed open account advances to be made by NU to certain of its

subsidiaries, as described above.  However, since the receipt by the

subsidiaries and the making by NU of open account advances will not involve

the issuance of any security by a subsidiary of NU, the Applicants do not

consider Sections 6 and 9 of the Act to be applicable to the proposed open

account advances. 



     33.  Borrowings from the Money Pool are subject to the requirements of

Sections 6, 7, 9(a), 10 and 12 of the Act and Rules 43 and 45 thereunder. 

Loans to the Money Pool are subject to the requirements of Sections 9(a),

10 and 12 of the Act, but are exempted from Rule 45(a) pursuant to

paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 45.  Investments of funds in the Money Pool are

subject to Sections 9(a), 10 and 12 of the Act.



     34.  Within 45 days after the end of each calendar quarter, the

Applicants will file certificates of partial consummation describing their

borrowings through the Money Pool and the issue and sale of Short-Term

Notes and Commercial Paper during that quarter pursuant to the authority

requested herein.  Such certificates will show the names of the borrowers,

the dates and amounts of all new borrowings, the names of the lenders, the

maximum amount of notes outstanding to lending institutions, the Money Pool
<PAGE>
                                    -20-



and commercial paper purchasers at any one time, and the total amount of

notes outstanding to lending institutions, the Money Pool and commercial

paper purchasers at the end of the quarter.  In addition, the certificates

will include the following information with respect to the issue and sale

of Commercial Paper: 

     (a)  the interest cost for each note issued as Commercial Paper as
          compared with the commercial bank prime rate in effect at the
          date of issue of such Commercial Paper; and

     (b)  the dollar saving of each issue and the total dollar saving on
          the aggregate notes covered by such certificate computed in each
          case on the basis of the difference between the interest cost on
          the Commercial Paper and the commercial bank prime rate for bank
          loans in effect at the date of issue of the Commercial Paper.



                                   ITEM 4

                            REGULATORY APPROVALS



     35.  The approval of the DPU is required pursuant to C.164, Section

17A of the Massachusetts General Laws for the participation of WMECO in the

Money Pool.  The DPU granted such approval on October 29, 1986.  As

explained in paragraph 8 above, the approval of the DPU will be required

under Massachusetts General Laws C.164A, Section 17A before PSNH can borrow

Money Pool funds attributable to contributions by WMECO.  WMECO has not yet

requested that authorization.  Until that authorization is granted, PSNH

may not borrow through the Money Pool from funds attributable to WMECO.



     36.  The New Hampshire Public Utilities Commission (the "NHPUC")

approved the PSNH Facility in an order dated July 20, 1990, and it approved

certain amendments to and an extension of the term of the PSNH Facility in

an order dated April 4, 1994.  The NHPUC approved PSNH's and NAEC's

participation in the Money Pool in an order dated March 19, 1992.

                                    -21-





     37.  No other state commission or federal commission (other than the

Securities and Exchange Commission) has jurisdiction over the issue and

sale of the Short-Term Notes and Commercial Paper or the borrowings from or

loans to or open account advances through the Money Pool.



                                   ITEM 5

                                 PROCEDURE



     38.  The authorizations given the Applicants in File No. 70-8048

expire on December 31, 1994, and the Applicants respectfully request that

the Commission permit this Application to become effective prior to that

date.  The Applicants request the Commission's approval, pursuant to this

Application, of all transactions described herein, whether under the

sections of the Act and rules thereunder enumerated in Item 2 or otherwise. 

The Applicants hereby waive any recommended decision by a hearing officer

or by any other responsible officer of the Commission and waive the 30-day

waiting period between the issuance of the Commission's order and the date

on which it is to become effective, since it is desired that the

Commission's order, when issued, become effective forthwith.  The

Applicants consent that the Office of Public Utility Regulation within the

Division of the Investment Management may assist in the preparation of the

Commission's decision and/or order unless the Office opposes the

transactions covered by this Application.

$               		                                Dated

    	 FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned (the "Borrower"), HEREBY
PROMISES TO PAY to the order of                     (the "Lender")
with respect to each Advance (as defined below):

    (a) in the case of an Advance made on an interest bearing basis,
the principal amount of such Advance made by the Lender to the
Borrower, on the date mutually agreed to by the Lender and the
Borrower at the time of such Advance as the maturity date thereof,
together with interest (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days
for the actual number of days, including the first day but excluding
the last day, elapsed) on the principal amount of each Advance
outstanding from time to time from and including the date on which
such Advance is made until the maturity date of such Advance, at an
interest rate per annum mutually agreed to by the Lender and the
Borrower at the time of such Advance (the "Quoted Rate"), payable on
the maturity date of such Advance; and

    (b) in the case of each Advance made on a discount basis by the
Lender to the Borrower, the stated or face amount of such Advance, on
the date mutually agreed to by the Lender and the Borrower at the time
of such Advance as the maturity date thereof.

Any overdue principal amount and overdue amount of interest, fees or
other amounts payable hereunder or under the Uncommitted Finance
Facility referred to below shall bear interest, payable on demand, at
the fluctuating interest rate per annum equal at all times to
Base Rate + 1%.

    	 The Borrower shall have no right to prepay any unpaid
principal amount of any Advance.

    	 If any of the following events shall occur and be continuing:

    (a)	 the Borrower shall fail to pay any principal of, or any
interest on, any Advance when the same becomes due and payable; or

    (b)	 any representation or warranty made by the Borrower (or any
of its officers) in connection with any Advance or otherwise in
connection with this Promissory Note shall prove to have been
incorrect in any material respect when made; or

    (c)	 the Borrower shall consolidate with or merge into any other
person or permit any other person to consolidate with or merge into
it; provided that the foregoing restriction does not apply to the
merger or consolidation of the Company with another corporation if:
<PAGE>
    	 (i)	 the corporation which results from such merger or
consolidation (the "surviving corporation") is organized under the
laws of the United State of America or any jurisdiction thereof;

    	 (ii)	 unless the surviving corporation is the Borrower, the
due and punctual performance and observance of all the covenants in
this Agreement and the Note to be performed or observed by the
Borrower are expressly assumed in writing by the surviving
corporation; and

    	 (iii)	 immediately after the consummation of the transaction
and after giving effect thereto, no Event of Default or event which
with the giving of notice or passage of time, or both, would become an
Event of Default would exist.

    (d)	 the Borrower shall fail to perform or observe any other
material term, covenant or agreement in connection with any Advance or
otherwise in connection with this Promissory Note on its part to be
performed or observed; or

    (e)	 The Borrower shall fail to pay any principal of or premium or
interest on any indebtedness (excluding indebtedness evidenced by this
Promissory Note), when the same becomes due and payable (whether by
scheduled maturity, required prepayment, acceleration, demand or
otherwise), and such failure shall continue after the applicable grace
period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating to
such indebtedness; or any other event shall occur or condition shall
exist under any agreement or instrument relating to such indebtedness
and shall continue after the applicable grade period, if any,
specified in such agreement or instrument, if the effect of such event
of condition is to accelerate, or to permit the acceleration of, the
maturity of such indebtedness; or any such indebtedness shall be
declared to be due and payable, or required to be prepaid (other than
by a regularly scheduled required prepayment), prior to the stated
maturity thereof; or

    (f)	 the Borrower shall generally not pay its debts as such debts
become due, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts
generally, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors; or any proceeding shall be instituted by or against the
Borrower seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeking
liquidation, winding up, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment,
protection, relief, or composition of it or its debts under any law
relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of
debtors, or seeking the entry of an order for relief or the
appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or other similar
official for it or any substantial part of its property; or the
Borrower shall take any corporate action to authorize any of the
actions set forth above in this subsection (f);

then, and in any such event, the Lender may declare this Promissory
Note, all interest thereon, and all other amounts payable hereunder to
be forthwith due and payable, whereupon this Promissory Note, such
<PAGE>
interest, and other amounts shall become and be forthwith due and
payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any
kind all of which the Borrower hereby expressly waives; provided,
however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order
for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy
Code, this Promissory Note, all such interest, and all such other
amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.	

    	  The Borrower shall make each payment of principal and
interest hereunder prior to     a.m. (New York City time) on the day
when due in lawful money of the United States of America to as at,
             , in same day funds.  Whenever any payment to be made
hereunder shall be otherwise due on a Saturday, a Sunday or a public
or bank holiday in (a) New York or (b) the city in which the principal
office of the Bank is located (any other day being a "Business Day"),
such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and
such extension of time shall in such case be included in the
computation of payment of interest.

    	 The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to endorse on the
grid attached hereto the date and amount of each Advance made by the
Lender to the Borrower hereunder, the maturity date thereof, all
payments made on account of principal thereof and the interest rate
applicable thereto, provided that the failure to do so shall not
affect the obligations of the Borrower to the Lender.

    	 The Borrower also agrees to pay on demand all costs and
expenses (including fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by the
Lender in enforcing this Promissory Noted.

    	 THIS PROMISSORY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF

    	 The Borrower and the Lender hereby irrevocably waive all
right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim
(whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or
relating to this Promissory Note or any Advances hereunder.

    	 This Promissory Note is the Note referred to in, and is
entitled to the benefits of, the Finance Facility dated
(the "Uncommitted Finance Facility"), between the Borrower and the
Lender, which Uncommitted Finance Facility, among other things, sets
forth procedures to be used in connection with the Borrower's periodic
requests that the Lender make advances (the "Advances") to it from
time to time in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time
outstanding the amount first above mentioned.

LEHMAN BROTHERS
(Division of Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc.)
American Express Tower
World Financial Center
New York, New York  10285-1000

                                   January 1, 1993

Dear Sirs: 

     NORTHEAST UTILITIES, an unincorporated voluntary business association
organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the
"Company") proposes to issue Private Notes (as defined below) from time to
time and, in connection therewith, agrees as follows with you, acting
directly or through one or more of your wholly-owned subsidiaries (you and
any such subsidiary through which you act being referred to collectively as
"Lehman Brothers"): 

          1.   Definitions. 

          (a)  "Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement" shall mean the
agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between the Company and Citibank,
N.A., providing for the issuance and payment of the Private Notes; and
"Issuing and Paying Agent" shall mean Citibank, N.A. in its capacity as
issuing and paying agent under the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement. 

          (b)  "Private Notes" shall mean promissory notes having
maturities of 270 days or less issued issued by the Issuer from time to
time in the form of either (i) certificated notes in the form attached
hereto as Exhibit A (the "Individual Notes") or (ii) book-entry obligations
represented by master notes in the forms attached as Exhibits B-1 and B-2
hereto (the Universal Notes").

          2.   Offering of Notes. 

     The offer and sale of the Private Notes is to be effected pursuant to
the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), provided by Section 4(2) thereof, which
exempts transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering. 
Offers and sales of the Private Notes will be made in accordance with the
general provisions of Rule 506 under the Act.  Lehman Brothers and the
Company hereby establish the following procedures in connection with the
offer and sale or resale of the Private Notes:

          (a)  Offers and sales of the Private Notes will be made only to
purchasers which Lehman Brothers reasonably believes qualify as accredited
investors (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Act) (each such
institutional purchaser being hereinafter called an "accredited investor")
or qualified institutional buyer (as defined in Rule 144A under the Act)
(each such institutional purchaser being hereinafter called a "qualified
institutional buyer.")  No Private Notes will be offered to natural
persons.
<PAGE>
                                    -2-



          (b)  The Private Notes will be offered only by approaching
prospective purchasers on an individual basis.  The Private Notes will not
be offered or sold by any means of general solicitation or general
advertising.

          (c)  In the case of a purchaser which is acting as a fiduciary
for one or more third parties and which is not a bank as defined in Section
3(a)(2) of the Act or a savings and loan association or other institution
as described in Section 3(a)(5) of the Act (each such purchaser, a "non-
bank fiduciary"), each such third party will, in the reasonable belief of
Lehman Brothers or any other placement agent approved by the Company (an
"Authorized Placement Agent"), be an accredited investor or qualified
institutional buyer.

          (d)  Each Note and the Univeral Notes shall contain the legend
set forth on the forms attached as Exhibit A or Exhibit B-1 or B-2 stating
in effect that such Note has not been registered under the Act and that a
resale or other transfer of such Note or any interest therein shall be made
only to a placement agent authorized by the Company or through a placement
agent authorized by the Company to an institutional investor approved as an
accredited investor (as defined in Regulation D under the Act) or qualified
institutional buyer by a placement agent authorized by the Company.  The
purpose of this requirement is to ensure that Private Notes are resold or
otherwise transferred only to accredited investors or qualified
institutional buyers and not in a manner that might call into question the
non-public offering character of the offer and sale of the Private Notes. 
Lehman Brothers agrees that (i) it will not effect or approve any such
resale except to itself or to an accredited investor or qualified
institutional buyer and (ii) each such resale shall be made in accordance
with the provisions of this Section 2.

          (f)  The Private Offering Brochure, initially in the form of
Exhibit C hereto, will be made available to each purchaser or prospective
purchaser together with any supplements to such Private Offering Brochure
which may have been prepared.  The Private Offering Brochure will contain a
statement expressly offering an opportunity for each prospective purchaser
to ask questions of, and receive answers from, the Company and Lehman
Brothers concerning the offering of the Private Notes and to obtain
additional relevant information which the Company or Lehman Brothers
possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense.  The
Private Offering Brochure will describe the availability of all documents
filed by the Company pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "Act").  All such documents will be offered to each
prospective purchaser of Private Notes at no charge.  

          3.   Issuance and Purchase of Notes. 

          While (i) the Company has and shall have no obligation to sell
Private Notes to Lehman Brothers or to permit Lehman Brothers to arrange
any sale of Private Notes for the account of the Company and (ii) Lehman
Brothers has and shall have no obligation to purchase Private notes from
the Company or to arrange any sale of Private Notes for the account of the
Company, the parties hereto agree that any Private Notes which Lehman
Brothers purchases or the sale of which Lehman Brothers arranges will be

warranties, covenants and agreements of the Company contained herein or

          4.   Information to be Furnished to Offeree.

          The Company and Lehman Brothers agree that, prior to the sale of
any Private Notes, each offeree thereof will be provided a copy of the
following documents: 

          (a)  The Private Offering Brochure describing the offering of the
Private Notes and the availability of all documents filed by the Company
pursuant to the Act, initially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, as the same
may have been revised from time to time with the written agreement of the
Company and Lehman Brothers; and 

          (b)  Any other materials which the Company may deliver to Lehman
Brothers with written instructions to furnish the same to offerees of the
Private Notes. 

          The Company will provide Lehman Brothers with copies of the
foregoing documents (including documents referred to in the Private
Offering Brochure) relating to it in such quantities as Lehman Brothers may
reasonably request from time to time.  To the extent reasonably requested
by Lehman Brothers or any offeree or purchaser, the Company will provide
such additional material or respond to such questions as may be appropriate

paid for, will be duly and validly issued and delivered and will constitute
legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the
Company in accordance with their terms subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and
subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless
of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law). 

          (b)  The Company is a voluntary association organized under a
declaration of trust, (i) duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and (ii) has

Agreement and the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement. 

          (c)  This Agreement and the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement

          (d)  There are no consents, authorizations or approvals of, or
filings with, any Federal or state government authority required in
connection with the issuance or sale by the Company of the Private Notes,
except to the extent already obtained and as may be required by state
securities laws. 

          (e)  The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of
this Agreement, the Private Notes and the Issuing and Paying Agency
Agreement will not result in a breach or violation of, conflict with, or
constitute a default under the declaration of trust of the Company or any
law, regulation, order, judgment, agreement or instrument to which the
Company is a party or by which the Company or any of its property is bound.


          (f)  There is no litigation or governmental proceeding pending,
or to the knowledge of the Company threatened, against or affecting the
Company or any of its subsidiaries which might result in a material adverse
change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company or the
ability of the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement or
the Private Notes. 

          (g)  The Company is not an "investment company" or a company
"controlled by an investment company" within the meaning of the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

          (i)  Each delivery of Private Notes to Lehman Brothers shall be
deemed a representation and warranty by the Company, as of the date
thereof, that (i) the Private Notes issued on such date have been duly
authorized, issued and delivered and, upon payment therefor, will
constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable
against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights
generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of
equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in
equity or at law), (ii) the representations and warranties of the Company
set forth in paragraphs (b) through (g) of this Section 5 are true and

          (a)  The Company will not offer, offer for sale, offer to sell or
sell any securities of the Company other than Private Notes offered or sold
hereunder (whether upon the initial issuance of such securities or after
any repurchase thereof by or on behalf of the Company) under circumstances
which would require the registration of any of such Private Notes under the
Securities Act of 1933. 
<PAGE>
                                    -5-



          (b)  For the benefit of Lehman Brothers and the holders of the
Private Notes, the Company will not permit to become effective any
amendment to or modification of the Issuing and Paying Agency Agreement
which might adversely affect the interests of the holder of any Private
Notes then outstanding.  The Company will give Lehman Brothers notice of
any proposed amendment to or modification of the Issuing and Paying Agency
Agreement at least ten days prior to the effective date thereof. 


          7.   Indemnification. 

          (a)  The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Lehman
Brothers, its officers, directors and employees and each person, if any,
who controls Lehman Brothers within the meaning of the Securities Act of
1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 from and against any loss,
claim, damage or liability, joint or several, and any action in respect
thereof, to which Lehman Brothers or any of them may become subject, under
the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or
otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises
out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
a material fact contained in any of the offering documents, or the omission
or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse Lehman Brothers and
each such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by Lehman Brothers or such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such
case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action
arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission contained in any of the offering
documents relating to Lehman Brothers or its activities hereunder.  The
foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the
Company may otherwise have to Lehman Brothers or any such indemnified
party. 

          (b)  Lehman Brothers shall indemnify and hold harmless the
Company, its officers, directors and employees and any person who controls
the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933 or the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 from and against any loss, claim, damage or
liability, joint or several, or any action in respect thereof, to which the
Company or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act of 1933,
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise, insofar as such loss,
claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact that
relates to Lehman Brothers or its activities hereunder contained in the
offering documents or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact that relates to Lehman Brothers or its activities hereunder
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and Lehman
Brothers shall reimburse the Company and each such indemnified party for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or such
indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such
loss, claim, damage, liability or action.  The foregoing indemnity
agreement is in addition to any liability which Lehman Brothers may
otherwise have to the Company or any such indemnified party. 
<PAGE>
                                    -6-



          (c)  Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 7 of Notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, such
indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against any indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify such
indemnifying party in writing of the claim or the commencement of that
action provided that the failure to notify the indemnifying party will not
relieve it from any liability which it may have to an indemnified party
otherwise than under this Section 7.  If any such claim or action is
brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify an indemnifying
party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate
therein, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other
similarly notified party, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (which shall not, except
with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying
party).  After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party
of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the
indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this
Section 7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than
reasonable costs of investigation.  With respect to any such claim or
action, the indemnifying party shall not be obligated to pay the fees and
expenses of more than one counsel in addition to counsel for the
indemnifying party.  

          (d)  If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 shall
for any reason be unavailable to an indemnified party under Section 7(a) or
7(b) hereof in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any
action in respect thereof, referred to therein, then the indemnifying party
shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, (i) in such
proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits
received by the Company on the one hand and Lehman Brothers on the other
from the offering of the Private Notes or (ii) if the allocation by clause
(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause
(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and
Lehman Brothers on the other with respect to the statements or omissions
which resulted in such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in
respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. 
The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and Lehman
Brothers on the other with respect to such offering shall be deemed to be
in the same proportion as the average face amount of the Private Notes
bears to the average compensation received by Lehman Brothers with respect
to the Private Notes.  The relative fault shall be determined by reference
to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to
information supplied by the Company on the one hand or Lehman Brothers on
the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
omission.  The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contributions pursuant to this Section 7(d) were to be determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take
into account the equitable consideration referred to herein.  The amount
paid or payable by any indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim,
damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in
<PAGE>
                                    -7-



this Section 7(d), shall be deemed to include, for purposes of this Section
7(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or
claim.  

     8.   General

          (a)  The indemnity agreements contained in Section 7 and the
representations and warranties of the company contained herein shall
survive the delivery of the Private Notes and shall remain in full force
and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement
or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.  

          (b)  The Company will promptly pay, or reimburse Lehman Brothers
on demand for, all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including
fees and disbursements of counsel to Lehman Brothers) incurred by Lehman
Brothers in connection with the preparation of this Agreement, the
negotiation of the transactions contemplated hereby and any amendments
thereto.  

          (c)  All notices required under the terms and provisions hereof

telex, telecopier or telegram (charges prepaid), promptly confirmed by

                  and delivered as provided in the Issuing and Paying
                  Agency Agreement and paid for, will be duly and

                  enforceable against the Company in accordance with
                  their terms subject to applicable bankruptcy,
                  insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors'
                  rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to
                  general principles of equity (regardless of whether
                  enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at
                  law).

             (b)  The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly
                  existing and in good standing under the laws of the
                  jurisdiction of its incorporation and has all

                  against the Company in accordance with their terms,
                  subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and
                  similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and
                  subject, as to enforceability, to general principles
                  of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought
                  in a proceeding in equity or at law).

             (d)  Except to the extent already obtained or completed,
                  there are no consents, authorizations or approvals of,
                  or filings with, any Federal or state government

                  its obligations thereunder.

                  of this Agreement, the Notes and the Issuing and
                  Paying Agency Agreement will not result in a breach or
                  violation of, conflict with, or constitute a default
                  under the charter or by-laws of the Company or any
                  law, regulation, order, judgment, agreement or
                  instrument to which the Company is a party or by which
                  the Company or any of its property is bound.

             (f)  There is no litigation or governmental proceeding
                  pending, or to the knowledge of the Company
                  threatened, against or affecting the Company or any of
                  its subsidiaries which would result in a material
                  adverse change in the condition (financial or
                  otherwise) of the Company or the ability of the
                  Company to perform its obligations under this
                  Agreement or the Notes.

             (g)  The Company is not an "investment company" or
                  "controlled by an investment company" within the
                  meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as

             (h)  Each delivery of Notes to Lehman shall be deemed a
                  representation and warranty by the Company, as of the
                  date thereof, that (i) the Notes issued on such date
                  have been duly authorized, issued and delivered and,
                  upon payment therefor, will constitute legal, valid
                  and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable
                  against the Company in accordance with their terms,
                  subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and
                  similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and
                  subject, as to enforceability, to general principles
                  of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought
                  in a proceeding in equity or at law), (ii) the
                  representations and warranties of the Company set
                  forth in paragraphs (b) through (g) of this Section 3
                  are true and correct as if made on such date and (iii)
                  the Company has complied at all times with the
                  provisions of Section 4(a) hereof.

        4.   Covenants and Agreements of the Company.

             The Company covenants and agrees that:

             (a)  The Company will use the proceeds of the sale of the
                  Notes for "current transactions" within the meaning of
                  Section 3(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933.

             (b)  The Company will not permit to become effective any
                  amendment to or modification of the Issuing and Paying
                  Agency Agreement which might adversely affect the
                  interests of the holder of any Notes then outstanding. 
                  The Company will give Lehman notice of any proposed

                  amendment to or modification of the Issuing and Paying
                  Agency Agreement at least ten days prior to the
                  effective date thereof.

        5.   Indemnification.

             The Company will indemnify and hold harmless Lehman against
             any loss, claim, damages, liability or expense (including
             reasonable costs of investigation and defense) arising out
             of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
             statement of a material fact contained in the Offering
             Documents (except to the extent the same relates to Lehman
             or its activities hereunder), or the omission or alleged
             omission to state therein such a material fact necessary to
             make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
             under which they were made, not misleading.  The
             obligations of the Company to Lehman under this Section 5
             shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

        6.   General

                  hereof shall be in writing, given in person, by mail

                               OFFERING DOCUMENTS

                             [INTENIONALLY OMITTED]


	     					EXHIBIT A.5


                 PROPOSED TERMS OF THE NU MONEY POOL
                   (Revised                 , 1993)


GENERAL

1.	 The members of the Money Pool (the Pool) are Northeast
         Utilities (NU), The Connecticut Light and Power Company
         (CL&P), Western Massachusetts Electric Company (WMECO),
         Northeast Nuclear Energy Company (NNECO), Northeast Utilities
         Service Company (NUSCO), Holyoke Water Power Company (HWP),
         The Rocky River Realty Company (RRR), The Quinnehtuk Company
         (Quinnehtuk), Public Service Company of New Hampshire (PSNH),
         North Atlantic Energy Corporation (North Atlantic) and HEC
         Inc. (HEC).

2.	 The Pool will be administered by NUSCO (Agent).

3.	 Each member will determine each day, on the basis of cash
         flow projections, the amount of surplus funds it has
         available for contribution to the Pool (Surplus Funds).  In
         addition to its own Surplus Funds, NU may borrow funds from
         third party lenders (Excess Funds) in order to make these
         Excess Funds available to meet the borrowing needs of NNECO,
         NUSCO, RRR, Quinnehtuk, PSNH, North Atlantic and HEC.

CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE POOL

4.	 Each member will contribute its surplus funds to the Pool.
         NU will contribute any Excess Funds to the Pool.

5.	 Each member will receive as interest with respect to its
         Surplus Funds that fraction of the total interest received by
         the Pool equal to the ratio of the Surplus Funds the member
         has contributed, times the period in which such Surplus Funds
         were available, to the total Surplus Funds in the Pool, times
         the period in which all Surplus Funds were in the Pool.  NU
         will receive the same interest with respect to its Excess
         Funds that it pays for its Excess Funds.  Such interest will
         be computed on a daily basis and settled once per month.

6.	 Each member may withdraw any of its Surplus Funds at any time
         without notice.  NU may withdraw its Excess Funds at any time
         without notice.

BORROWINGS FROM THE POOL

7.	 NU shall not be entitled to borrow from the Pool.
<PAGE>

8.	 North Atlantic and HEC shall be entitled to borrow only to
         the extent that Excess Funds, or Surplus Funds that are
         attributable to contributions from NU, are available for such
         borrowings.  PSNH shall not be entitled to borrow Surplus
         Funds that are attributable to contributions from WMECO until
         the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities has issued
         an order authorizing WMECO to lend funds to PSNH through the
         Pool.

9.	 All short-term borrowing needs of members other than NU,
         which shall not be entitled to borrow from the Pool and PSNH,
         HEC and North Atlantic, which may borrow only subject to the
         conditions set forth in paragraph 8, will be met by Surplus
         Funds in the Pool to the extent such funds are available.
         NNECO, NUSCO, RRR, Quinnehtuk, PSNH, North Atlantic and HEC
         may meet their short-term borrowing needs through Excess
         Funds made available from NU.

10.	 Loans will be made first to borrowers that cannot access the
         commercial paper market.

11.	 Members borrowing Surplus Funds will pay interest at a rate
         equal to the daily composite Federal Funds rate.  The rate to
         be used for weekends and holidays will be the prior business
         day's rate.  Members borrowing Excess Funds will pay interest
         at the same rate that NU pays for those Excess Funds.

12.	 Loans made by the Pool will be open account advances for
         periods of less than 12 months, although the Agent may
         receive upon demand a promissory note evidencing the
         transaction.

13.	 All loans made by the Pool from Surplus Funds are payable on
         demand by the Agent.

14.	 All loans made by the Pool from Surplus Funds may be prepaid
         by the borrower without penalty.  No loans from Excess Funds
         shall be prepaid prior to the maturity of the NU borrowing
         that resulted in the Excess Funds, unless the prepayment can
         be made without NU incurring additional costs or unless the
         prepayment is accompanied by payment of any additional costs
         incurred by NU as a result of such prepayment.

15.	 If there are more Surplus Funds in the Pool than are
         necessary to meet the borrowing needs of the members, the
         Agent will use the Surplus Funds to meet the NU system's
         compensating balance requirements or invest them on behalf of
         the Pool in one of the following instruments:

	 (1)  obligations issued or guaranteed by the United States of
              America;
<PAGE>

	 (2)  obligations issued or guaranteed by any person
              controlled or supervised by and acting as an
              instrumentality of the United States of America pursuant
              to authority granted by the Congress of the United
              States;

	 (3)  obligations issued or guaranteed by any state or
              political subdivision thereof, provided that such
              obligations are rated for investment purposes at not
              less than "A" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., or by
              Standard & Poor's Corporation;

	 (4)  commercial paper rated not less than "P-1" by Moody's
              Investors Service, Inc., or not less than "A-1" by
              Standard & Poor's Corporation;

	 (5)  such other instruments as are permitted by Rule 40(a)(1)
              under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935 and
              approved by the Massachusetts Department of Public
              Utilities pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter
              164, Section 17A and regulations thereunder.

TERMINATION

16.	 Any member may terminate its participation in the Pool at any
         time without notice.

               APPLICATION/DECLARATION BY NORTHEAST UTILITIES
           AND SUBSIDIARIES WITH RESPECT TO SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS


_____________, 1994


          Northeast Utilities ("NU"), 174 Brush Hill Avenue, West
Springfield, Massachusetts 01809, a public utility holding company
registered under the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended
(the "Act"), and its wholly owned subsidiaries ("Subsidiaries"), Holyoke
Water Power Company ("HWP"), Canal Street, Holyoke, Massachusetts 01040,
Western Massachusetts Electric Company ("WMECO") and The Quinnehtuk Company
("Quinnehtuk"), both of 174 Brush Hill Avenue, West Springfield,
Massachusetts 01809, Public Service Company of New Hampshire ("PSNH") and
North Atlantic Energy Corporation ("NAEC"), both of 1000 Elm Street
Manchester, New Hampshire 03105, The Connecticut Light and Power Company
("CL&P"), Northeast Nuclear Energy Company ("NNECO") and The Rocky River
Realty Company ("RRR"), each of 107 Selden Street, Berlin, Connecticut
06037, and HEC Inc. ("HEC") of 24 Prime Parkway, Natick, Massachusetts
01760 (all companies collectively, the "Applicants"), have filed an
application/declaration (the "Application") under Sections 6, 7, 9(a), 10
and 12 of the Act and Rules 43 and 45 thereunder.

          By order of the Commission dated December 16, 1992 (HCA Rel. No.
25710) (the "December 1992 Order"), the Commission authorized, through
December 31, 1994:  (i) NU to make open account advances to its subsidiary
companies; (ii) the continuation of the Northeast Utilities System Money
Pool (the "Money Pool"); (iii) the issuance of short-term notes pursuant to
lines of credit by NU, HWP, WMECO, CL&P, NNECO, RRR and PSNH; and (iv) the
issuance and sale of commercial paper by NU, CL&P and WMECO.  The funds
from those short-term borrowings were to be utilized by NU's subsidiary
companies for operational, maintenance and construction expenses and to
meet certain cash needs.  The December 1992 Order limited the aggregate
amount of all short-term borrowing, whether through the issuance of short-
term notes, commercial paper, open account advances, borrowing from the
Money Pool, or through existing revolving credit agreements, to the
following maximum amounts:  NU, $175 million; HWP, $8 million; WMECO,
$75 million; Quinnehtuk, $8 million; CL&P, $375 million; NNECO,
$65 million; RRR, $15 million; PSNH, $125 million; and NAEC, $50 million.

          By order of the Commission dated June 25, 1993 (HCA Rel. No.
25836), HEC was authorized, through December 31, 1994, to participate in
the Money Pool, HEC's short-term borrowings from the Money Pool were
limited to $11 million, and the limit on RRR's short-term borrowings was
increased to $25 million.

          By order of the Commission dated September 13, 1994 (HCA Rel. No.
26126), the limit on CL&P's short-term borrowings was increased to $500
million and CL&P was authorized to use the proceeds of such short-term
borrowings, inter alia, to repay certain of its first mortgage bonds.

                                    -2-



          The Applicants now propose:  (1) to make short-term borrowings
from time to time after December 31, 1994 through December 31, 1996,
evidenced (i) in the case of NU, CL&P, WMECO, PSNH, HWP, NNECO and RRR, by
short-term notes ("Short-Term Notes") issued to banks and non-bank lending
institutions through formal and informal credit lines, and (ii) in the case
of NU, WMECO and CL&P, by commercial paper ("Commercial Paper"); (2) the
continued use, through December 31, 1996, of the Money Pool, to assist in
meeting the Subsidiaries' respective short-term borrowing needs; and (3)
that NU make open account advances, through December 31, 1996, to PSNH,
NNECO, NAEC, Quinnehtuk, RRR and HEC.

          The aggregate amount of all short-term borrowings through
December 31, 1996, whether through the issuance of Short-Term Notes,
Commercial Paper or borrowings from the Money Pool or revolving credit
facilities or pursuant to open account advances, will not exceed
$150 million for NU, $325 million for CL&P, $60 million for WMECO,
$175 million for PSNH, $5 million for HWP, $50 million for NNECO,
$50 million for NAEC, $22 million for RRR, $8 million for Quinnehtuk, and
$11 million for HEC.1


          Each of the Subsidiaries, except for NAEC, Quinnehtuk and HEC,
proposes to issue Short-Term Notes.  Short-Term Notes will be issued both
on a transactional basis ("Transactional Notes"), with a separate note
evidencing each loan, and on a "grid-note" basis ("Grid Notes").  Each
Transactional Note will be dated the date of issue, will have a maximum
term of 270 days, and will bear interest at a fixed or floating rate, as
described below.  Transactional Notes will be issued no later than December
31, 1996, and will, with certain exceptions as described below, be subject
to prepayment at any time at the borrower's option.

          Grid Notes will be issued by an Applicant to a particular lending
institution at or prior to the first borrowing under the Grid Note from
that lender by the Applicant.  Each repayment and reborrowing subsequent to
the first borrowing will be recorded on a schedule to the note without the
necessity of issuing additional notes.  Also recorded on a schedule to the
Grid Note at the time of a borrowing will be the date of the borrowing, the
maturity (which may not exceed 270 days from the date of the borrowing),
the number of days the borrowing is outstanding, the interest rate or
method of determining the interest rate, the amount of interest due, and
the date of payment.  Except as described below, borrowings on a Grid Note
basis will be subject to prepayment at any time at the borrower's option.

          The interest rate on all Short-Term Notes will be determined on
the basis of competitive quotations from several lending institutions, and
                              

               1
                    The aggregate amount of  short-term unsecured debt that
          can be  incurred by CL&P  and WMECO is further  restricted by the
          provisions of their respective preferred  stocks.  CL&P and WMECO
          each  have  authorization from  the  holders of  their respective
          preferred stocks (through March  31, 2004 in the case of CL&P and
          through  February  10,  2004  in  the  case of  WMECO)  to  issue
          securities representing unsecured indebtedness up to a maximum of
          20% of their respective capitalizations.
<PAGE>
                                    -3-



will either be at a fixed interest rate or at a floating interest rate
determined with reference to an agreed-upon index (such as a lending
institution's prime rate, the London InterBank Offered Rate (LIBOR),
certificate of deposit rates, money market rates or commercial paper
rates).  The interest rate in any case will not exceed two percentage
points above the Federal Funds Effective Rate.  The Applicants will select
the lending institution(s) from which to make a particular short-term
borrowing and determine whether to borrow at a fixed or a floating rate on
the basis of the lowest expected effective interest cost for borrowings of
comparable sizes and maturities.

          Borrowings bearing floating interest rates will generally be
subject to prepayment at the borrower's option.  The Applicants believe
that many lending institutions lending funds at fixed interest rates are
engaged in "matched funding," i.e., such lenders acquire for comparable
maturities the funds that are lent to their borrowers.  Because the lenders
would remain obligated under their own borrowings from others if the
Applicants were to prepay their borrowings in advance of their scheduled
maturities, many lending institutions lending funds at fixed interest rates
stipulate that such borrowings may not be prepaid or may be prepaid only
with a premium that will make the lender whole for any losses (including
lost profits) it may incur.  Accordingly, in order to realize the benefits
of fixed interest rates when a fixed-rate borrowing is evaluated to be the
lowest cost borrowing available, the Applicants may from time to time agree
with individual lenders that such borrowings may not be prepaid or may only
be prepaid if the lender is made whole for its losses.

          The Applicants (other than NAEC, HEC and Quinnehtuk) propose to
secure both formal and informal credit lines with a number of lending
institutions.  Formal credit lines may be subject to compensating balance
and/or fee requirements and will therefore be used only when an Applicant
determines that such a credit line offers advantages as compared with other
available credit options.  Compensating balance requirements will not
exceed 5% of the committed credit line amount, and fees will not exceed
0.30% per annum.  Each Applicant participating in a credit line would be
able to draw funds to the exclusion of the other Applicants.  The
Applicants may change their credit lines and may obtain additional lines
over time.  The continued availability of such credit lines is subject to
the continuing review of the lending institutions.

          CL&P, WMECO and NU propose to continue to sell Commercial Paper
publicly.  Such Commercial Paper will be issued through The Depository
Trust Company in the form of book entry notes in denominations of not less
than $50,000, of varying maturities, with no maturity more than 270 days
after the date of issue.  The Commercial Paper will not be repayable prior
to maturity.  The Commercial Paper will be sold through a placement agent
or agents in a co-managed commercial paper program at either the discount
rate per annum or the interest rate per annum prevailing at the date of
issuance for commercial paper of comparable quality and of the particular
maturity sold by public utility issuers thereof.  No Commercial Paper will
be issued unless the issuing Applicant believes that the effective interest
cost to the Applicant will be equal to or less than the effective interest
rate at which the Applicant could issue Short-Term Notes in an amount at
least equal to the principal amount of such Commercial Paper.  The
<PAGE>
                                    -4-



placement agent or agents will receive a commission for the sale of the
Commercial Paper of not more than 1/8 of 1% per annum on a discounted
basis.  CL&P and WMECO will publicly issue and sell Commercial Paper
without registration thereof in reliance upon the exemption set forth in
Section 3(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act").  NU will
publicly issue and sell commercial paper without registration thereof in
reliance upon the exemption set forth in Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and
Regulation D thereunder.  

          The Applicants also propose the continued use, through December
31, 1996, of the Money Pool, which is composed of available funds loaned by
the participating Subsidiaries and borrowed by those Subsidiaries to assist
in meeting their respective short-term borrowing needs.  Another potential
component of the Money Pool is funds borrowed by NU through the issuance of
Short-Term Notes, by selling Commercial Paper or by borrowing through a
revolving credit facility (pursuant to File No. 70-8052) for the purpose of
making open account advances through loans through the Money Pool.  NU
requests that its authority for such borrowings be extended through
December 31, 1996.  The amounts to be borrowed by NU for the purpose of
making open account advances and to be borrowed through the Money Pool by
the recipients set forth above will also be subject to the short-term
limits on aggregate amount outstanding for which approval is sought in this
filing.

          All borrowings from and contributions to the Money Pool,
including the open account advances, will be documented and will be
evidenced on the books of each Applicant that is borrowing from or
contributing surplus funds to the Money Pool.  Except for loans from the
proceeds of external borrowings by NU, all loans made under the Money Pool
will bear interest for both the borrower and lender, payable monthly, equal
to the daily Federal Funds Effective Rate as quoted by the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York.  Loans from the proceeds of external borrowings by NU
will bear interest at the same rate paid by NU on the borrowings, and no
such loans may be prepaid (unless NU is made whole for any additional costs
that may be incurred because of such prepayment).  To the extent that there
are any excess funds available in the Money Pool, such funds will be
invested with the earnings allocated on a pro rata basis.

          The Applicants state that they intend to request the Commission's
approval, pursuant to the Application, of all transactions described
therein, whether under the enumerated sections of the Act and the rules
thereunder or otherwise.

          The Application and any amendments thereto are available for
public inspection through the Commission's Office of Public Reference.  Any
interested persons wishing to comment or request a hearing on the
Application should submit their views in writing by             , 1994, to
the Secretary, Securities and Exchange Commission, Washington, D.C. 20549,
and serve a copy on the Applicants at the addresses specified above.  Proof
of service (by affidavit or, in the case of an attorney at law, by
certificate) should be filed with the request.  Any request for hearing
shall identify specifically the issues of fact or law that are disputed.  A
person who so requests will be notified of any hearing, if ordered, and
will receive a copy of any notice or order issued in this matter.  After

said date, the Application, as filed or as it may be further amended, may
be granted.

          For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management,
pursuant to delegated authority.
