Item 2.  ACQUISITIONS OR SALES OF UTILITY ASSETS

             None required to be reported.


Item 3.  ISSUE, SALE, PLEDGE, GUARANTEE OR ASSUMPTION OF SYSTEM SECURITIES

             Descriptions of transactions involving the issue, sale,
         pledge, guarantee or assumption of system securities have been
         filed pursuant to Rule 24, with the exception of certain NU
         guarantees incident to the procurement of surety bonds and the
         issue of certain securities, as described below, and some
         recurrent short-term borrowings.  For information regarding those
         short-term borrowings, see Item 10, Financial Statements and
         Exhibits.

             In the ordinary course of their business, the NU subsidiary
         companies are required to provide surety or performance bonds. 
         From time to time, NU guarantees the payment of such a bond by its
         subsidiary through the indemnification of the surety company or
         agency which has agreed to provide the bond.  NU's guarantee of
         these surety bonds is exempt from the provisions of Section 12(b)
         of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, pursuant to
         Rule 45(b)(6) thereunder.  As of December 31, 1993, NU had
         $3,350,000 of such guarantees outstanding, and the highest
         amount outstanding during 1993 was $3,670,368, which amount
         was outstanding from April 7 to May 21, 1993.

             In addition, information relating to the following issuances
         of securities has been filed on Form U-6B-2 in accordance with
         Rule 52:

ITEM 6.   OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS (Continued)


Part III. The information provided herein is applicable to all system
          companies, except as indicated otherwise.

     a.   COMPENSATION OF TRUSTEES, DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

          Compensation of Trustees

          During 1993, each Trustee who was not an employee of a system
     company was compensated at an annual rate of $17,000 cash plus common
     shares of NU, and received $900 for each meeting of the Board or its
     committees attended.  The Chairmen of the Audit Committee, Corporate
     Responsibility Committee and the Committee on Organization, Compensation
     and Board Affairs were compensated at an additional annual rate of
     $3000.  Pursuant to a deferred compensation plan for Trustees
     established by the Board in 1980, Ms. Cleveland elected to defer
     payments for her 1993 service as a Trustee until termination of her
     service as a Trustee, at which time she will receive her deferred
     compensation in five annual installments.  

          Cash Compensation of Directors and Executive Officers

          All cash compensation paid by the system companies in 1993 to each
     of the five highest paid executive officers of the system companies, and
     to all executive officers of the system companies as a group, appears
     below.

Notes:

1.   Until 1991, awards under the short-term programs of the Northeast
     tilities Executive Incentive Compensation Program (EICP) were made in
     restricted stock.  In 1991, the Northeast Utilities Executive Incentive
     Plan (EIP) was adopted, which did not require restricted stock awards. 
     Awards under the 1991 and 1992 short-term programs under the EIP were
     paid in 1992 and 1993, respectively, in the form of unrestricted stock
     and, in accordance with the requirements of the SEC, are included as
     "bonus" in the years earned.

2.   The five executive officers listed in the table above each received an
     award of restricted stock in May, 1991 (which vested in January, 1993),
     under the EICP.  The number of shares in each such award is shown below.

     All restricted stock awards under the EICP vested prior to December 31,
     1993.

                   B. M. Fox         1,807                       
                   W. B. Ellis       2,585

                   J. P. Cagnetta      847                       


3.   "All Other Compensation" consists of employer matching contributions
     under the Northeast Utilities Service Company Supplemental Retirement
     and Savings Plan  (401(k) Plan), generally available to all eligible
     employees.  In 1993, the employer match for non-union employees was 100
     percent of the first three percent of compensation contributed on a
     before-tax basis.

4.   Awards under the short-term program of the EIP have typically been made
     by NU's Committee on Organization, Compensation and Board Affairs in
     April each year.  Based on preliminary estimates of corporate
     performance, and assuming that the individual performance levels of
     Messrs. Opeka, Busch and Cagnetta approximate those of other system
     officers, it is estimated that the five executive officers listed in the
     table above would receive the following awards: Mr. Fox - $180,780; Mr.
     Ellis - $160,693;  Mr. Busch - $64,946;  Mr. Opeka - $64,946; and Dr.
     Cagnetta - $43,828. 

5.   Mr. Fox served as President and Chief Operating Officer of CL&P, NAEC
     and WMECO and Vice Chairman and Chief Operating Officers of PSNH until
     July 1, 1993, when he became President and Chief Executive Officer of
     CL&P, NAEC and WMECO and Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
     PSNH.  Mr. Ellis served as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of these
     companies until July 1, 1993, when he became Chairman.  Amounts listed
     in the "Long Term Incentive Program" column of the Summary Compensation
     Table for 1993 were received by these individuals prior to their change
     in responsibilities.  $267,500 of Mr. Ellis's 1993 salary was paid prior
     to July 1, 1993, while he was Chief Executive Officer, and $253,750 was
     paid after July 1, 1993.  $217,500 of Mr. Fox's 1993 salary was paid
     prior to July 1, 1993, and $261,275 was paid after Mr. Fox became Chief
     Executive Officer on July 1, 1993.

PENSION BENEFITS

     The following table shows the estimated annual retirement benefits
payable to an executive officer of NU, CL&P, WMECO, PSNH and NAEC upon
retirement, assuming that retirement occurs at age 65 and that the officer is
at that time not only eligible for a pension benefit under the Northeast
Utilities Service Company Retirement Plan (the Retirement Plan) but also
eligible for the "make-whole benefit" and the "target benefit" under the
Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for Officers of Northeast Utilities
System Companies (the Supplemental Plan).  The Supplemental Plan is a
non-qualified pension plan providing supplemental retirement income to System
officers.  The "make-whole benefit" under the Supplemental Plan makes up for
benefits lost through application of certain tax code limitations on the
benefits that may be provided under the Retirement Plan, and is available to
all officers.  The "target benefit" further supplements these benefits and is
available to officers at the Senior Vice President level and higher who are
selected by the NU Board of Trustees to participate in the target benefit and
who remain in the employ of NU companies until at least age 60 (unless the NU
Board of Trustees sets an earlier age).  Each of the executive officers of
NU, CL&P, WMECO, PSNH and NAEC named in the summary compensation table above
is currently eligible for a target benefit.  If an executive officer were not
eligible for a target benefit at the time of retirement, a lower level of
retirement benefits would be paid.   

     The benefits presented are based on a straight life annuity beginning at
age 65 and do not take into account any reduction for joint and survivorship
annuity payments.

     Final average compensation for purposes of calculating the "target
benefit" is the highest average annual compensation of the participant during
any 36 consecutive months compensation was earned.  Compensation taken into
account under the "target benefit" described above includes salary, bonus,
restricted stock awards, and long-term incentive payouts shown in the Summary
Compensation Table above, but does not include employer matching
contributions under the Northeast Utilities Service Company Supplemental
Retirement and Savings Plan (401(k)) Plan.  In the event that an officer's
employment terminates because of disability, the retirement benefits shown
above would be offset by the amount of any disability benefits payable to the
recipient that are attributable to contributions made by NU and its
subsidiaries under long term disability plans and policies.

<PAGE>31

     As of December 31, 1993, the five executive officers named in the
Summary Compensation Table above had the following years of credited service
for retirement compensation purposes:  Mr. Fox - 29, Mr. Ellis - 17,  Mr.
Opeka - 23, Mr. Busch - 20 and Dr. Cagnetta - 21.  Assuming that retirement
were to occur at age 65 for these officers, retirement would occur with 43,
29, 35, 38 and 25 years of credited service, respectively.  

     NU has entered into agreements with Messrs. Ellis and Fox to provide for
an orderly management succession.  The agreement with Mr. Ellis calls for him
to work with the NU Board of Trustees and Mr. Fox to effect the orderly
transition of his responsibilities to Mr. Fox.  In accordance with the
agreement, Mr. Ellis stepped down as Chief Executive Officer of NU, CL&P,
WMECO, PSNH and NAEC as of July 1, 1993.  The agreement anticipates his
retirement as of August 1, 1995. 

     The agreement provides that, upon his retirement, Mr. Ellis will be
entitled to receive from NU  and its subsidiaries a target benefit under the
Supplemental Plan.  His target benefit will be based on the greater of his
actual final average compensation or an amount determined as if his salary
had increased each year since 1991 at a rate equal to the average rate of the
increases of all other target benefit participants and as if he had received
incentive awards each year based on this modified salary, but with the same
performance as the Chief Executive Officer at the time.  The agreement also
provides specified death and disability benefits for the period before Mr.
Ellis's  1995 retirement.

     The agreement with Mr. Fox states that if he is terminated as Chief
Executive Officer without cause, he will be entitled to specified severance
pay and benefits.  Those benefits consist primarily of (i) two years' base
pay, medical, dental and life insurance benefits, (ii) a supplemental
retirement benefit equal to the difference between the target benefit he
would be entitled to receive if he had reached the age of 55 on the
termination date and the actual target benefit to which he is entitled as of
the termination date, and (iii) a target benefit under the Supplemental Plan,
notwithstanding that he might not have reached age 60 on the termination date
and notwithstanding other forfeiture provisions of that plan.  The agreement
also provides specified death and disability benefits.  The agreement
terminates two years after NU gives Mr. Fox a notice of termination, but no
earlier than the date he becomes 55.

     The agreements do not address the officers' normal compensation and
benefits, which are to be determined by NU's Committee on Organization,
Compensation and Board Affairs and the NU Board of Trustees in accordance
with their customary practices.

         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To Northeast Utilities and Subsidiaries:

     We have audited the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated
statement of capitalization of Northeast Utilities (a Massachusetts trust)
and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993, and the related consolidated
statements of income, common shareholders' equity, cash flows, and income
taxes for the year then ended, included in the 1993 annual report to
shareholders and incorporated by reference in this Form U5S.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audit.  

     We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.  

     In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Northeast
Utilities and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993, and the results of their
operations and cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.  

     As explained in Note 1 to the financial statements, "Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies--Accounting Changes," effective January 1,
1993, Northeast Utilities and subsidiaries changed their methods of
accounting for property taxes, postretirement benefits other than pensions,
income taxes, and employee stock ownership plans.

own right; and provided any judge of the superior court may grant an order of
notice concerning any proceeding taken under authority of this act as in cases
demanding equitable relief.  The expenses or costs of any such proceeding shall
be taxed by such court or judge and paid by such corporation.

     Section 1.  Each stockholder shall be entitled to a certificate of the

Directors.  Such certificate shall bear the seal, or facsimile seal, of the

     Section 2.  The approval of stockholders holding a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Company's capital stock, evidenced either by a vote
duly adopted at a meeting of the stockholders or by the written consents of the
consenting stockholders, shall be required in the case of any sale, pledge, or
other transfer of any share of stock heretofore or hereafter issued by the
Company, except:

     (1)    a transfer by a corporate stockholder incident to a merger,
consolidation or transfer of all or substantially all its assets to a successor
corporation which shall, as a part of succession, assume all the obligations of
the corporate stockholder to the Company, including without implied limitation,
any contract for the purchase of electric power;

    (2)     a transfer to secure indebtedness of a corporate stockholder
maturing not less than twelve months from the date thereof, whether to a
pledgee, mortgagee, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of the securities
representing such indebtedness; or 


   (3)     a lien or transfer arising by operation of law or by virtue of the
decree or order of any court of competent jurisdiction.  

     If any shares are transferred or made subject to a lien in any transaction
permitted by (2) or (3) above, the transferee or lien holder shall make a
written offer of the shares to the Company for purchase prior to any further
sale or other transfer thereof, and the Company or its designees shall have the
right to purchase such shares if within 10 days of receipt of such offer it
notifies the transferee or lien holder in writing that it or its designees
elects to purchase such shares, otherwise such share may be sold by the
transferee or lien holder without regard to the restrictions upon sale or
transfer imposed by this section.  If the Company or its designees elects to
purchase such shares, the price to be paid for the shares shall be the book
value thereof as of the end of the month last preceding the date on which such
offer is received by the Company.  

     For purposes of establishing the value of shares of capital stock under
this Section 2, book value shall be deemed to be the sum of the following:  

     (a)  Par or stated value of Common Stock

     (b)  Capital or paid-in surplus
     
     (c)  Retained earnings or earned surplus

     (d)  Surplus reserves
 
after adjustments for (i) mathematical errors and omissions, (ii) any deferred
or unapplied debits, and (iii) any other adjustments necessary to show assets
and liabilities at amounts determined by and recorded in the 
accounting records of the Company in accordance with the Uniform System of
Accounts prescribed by the Federal Power Commission for Class A Public Utilities
(or, if said Commission does not have jurisdiction, then in accordance with the
applicable accounting regulations prescribed by the regulatory body which has
primary accounting jurisdiction at the time).  The book value of each share of
capital stock is determined by dividing the total book value by the number of
shares outstanding.  

     In the case of such sale, the sale shall be consummated at the Company's
principal office on such business day (not later than 20 days after the price
is determined) and at such hour during customary business hours as the purchaser
may specify in a written notice given to the seller at least 10 days in advance
of the specified date.  

     Any transfer made in violation of the foregoing restrictions shall be
invalid.  The restriction on transfer imposed by this Section 2 shall be noted
conspicuously on each certificate of the capital stock.

             INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES

proceeding by reason of the fact that he, or a person whose legal representative
or successor he is, is or was a director, officer, employee or independent

     ARTICLE III.   The principal place of business of this corporation is to

     ARTICLE IV.    The number of shares authorized to be issued is one thousand
(1,000), all of which shares shall be without nominal or par value and of which
five hundred (500) shares shall be common stock and five hundred (500) shall be
preferred stock.

     The holders of said preferred stock shall be entitled to receive, when and
as declared by the Board of Directors of the corporation, out of the surplus or
net profits arising from the business of the corporation, dividends payable
quarterly at the rate of, but not exceeding Seven Dollars ($7) per share per
annum, before any dividends shall be paid upon the common stock.  Such dividends
shall be cumulative, so that if in any year dividends amounting to Seven Dollars
($7) per share shall not have been paid on said preferred stock, the deficiency
shall be paid in succeeding years and before any dividend shall be paid upon the
common stock, provided, however, that any such accumulated dividends shall not
bear interest.

     Said preferred stock may be redeemed at the option of the corporation, in
whole or in part, at One Hundred and Five Dollars ($105) per share and in
addition the amount of any dividends thereon in arrears at the time of such
redemption, at any time, and from time to time, in the discretion of the board
of directors, upon notice given by mail at least thirty (30) days prior to the
time fixed for such redemption, addressed to each holder of record of said
preferred stock whose stock is to be redeemed, at his, her or its address as
shown by the stock transfer books of the corporation.  In case of redemption in
whole or in part, the method of carrying the same into effect shall be as
prescribed from time to time by the board of directors.

     In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the corporation, or a
sale of its assets (whether voluntary or involuntary) or in the event of its
insolvency, or upon any distribution of its capital, there shall be paid to the
holders of the preferred stock One Hundred Dollars ($100) per share and the
amount of all unpaid accrued dividends thereon, before any sum shall be paid or
any assets distributed among the holders of the common stock.  After the payment
to the holders of the preferred stock of One Hundred Dollars ($100) per share,
and the unpaid accrued dividends thereon, the remaining assets and funds of the
corporation shall be divided among and paid to the holders of the common stock
according to their respective shares.

     The retirement of the preferred stock shall be effected only by payment out
of the surplus funds of the corporation, but no preferred stock shall be retired
under circumstances which would produce an impairment of the capital of the
corporation.

     The common stock shall be subject to the prior rights of the holders of
said preferred stock at any time outstanding, according to the preferences
thereof.  If from the business of any particular year, after providing out of
the net profits of such fiscal year for the payment of the full cumulative
dividends on said preferred stock, there shall remain surplus or net profits,
the board of directors may declare and out of such surplus or net profits in
such year may pay, dividends upon the common stock.

     So long as the said dividends on said preferred stock shall be paid
quarterly as aforesaid, the holders of said preferred stock shall have no voting
power on any question except as may be required by statute.  Such voting power
at any meeting of the stockholders for the election of directors or at any
meeting of stockholders concerning the management of the company, except as
otherwise provided by statute, shall be exercised exclusively by the holders of
the common stock.  If, however, any dividend upon said preferred stock be not
paid when payable and remain so unpaid for a period of one year, then, and so
long as such dividends or any part thereof remains unpaid, the holders of the
preferred stock shall be entitled to the same voting powers thereon as belong
to the common stock, but upon said dividend being paid, the voting power of said
preferred stock shall again cease.

     ARTICLE V.     The first meeting of the incorporators shall be held at
Dover, New Hampshire, on the First day of February, 1924, at 4 o'clock in the
afternoon.

writings signed by a majority of such holders; nor shall any director or officer
be liable to account to the corporation for any profits realized by and from or
through any such transaction, or contract of this corporation authorized,
ratified, or approved as aforesaid by reason of the fact that he or any firm of
which he is a member or employee, or any corporation of which he is a
shareholder, director, officer or employee was interested in such transaction
or contract.

     12a. The Company shall reimburse or indemnify each present and future
director and officer of the Company (and his heirs, executors and
administrators) for or against all expenses reasonably incurred by him or
imposed on him, subsequent to the adoption of this By-Law, in connection with,
or arising out of, any action, suit or proceeding in which he may be involved
by reason of his being or having been a director or officer of the company where
disposition of such action, suit or proceeding is made in favor of such director
or officer; provided that no reimbursement shall be made until such time has
elapsed that appeal can no longer be taken and that, in the judgment of the
Board of Directors, such action, suit or proceedings will not be recommenced. 
Such expenses and liabilities shall include, but shall not be limited to,
judgments, court costs and attorneys' fees.

          The foregoing rights shall not be exclusive of other rights to which

condition or otherwise) is required, authorized by any order or orders issued
pursuant to:  the Public Utility Holding Company act of 1935; the Federal Power
Act; or any state statute regulating the Company or its subsidiaries by reason
of their being public utility companies or public utility holding companies; or
any amendments to any thereof.  In any action, suit or proceeding based on any
act, omission, step or conduct, as in this paragraph described, the provisions
hereof shall be brought to the attention of the court.  In the event that the
foregoing provisions of this paragraph are found by the court not to constitute
a valid defense on the grounds of not being applicable to the particular class
of plaintiff, each such director and officer (and his heirs, executors and
administrators) shall be reimbursed for, or indemnified against, all expenses
and liabilities incurred by him or imposed on him, in connection with, or
arising out of, any such action, suit or proceeding based on any act, omission,
step or conduct as in this paragraph described taken or had in good faith.  Such
expenses and liabilities shall include, but shall not be limited to, judgments,
court costs and attorneys' fees.

          The foregoing rights shall not be exclusive of other rights to which
any director or officer may otherwise be entitled and shall be available whether

shall be given to all Directors.

shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock representing at least
two-thirds (2/3) of the votes entitled to be cast shall constitute a quorum, and
at each meeting at which a quorum, as aforesaid, is present, the affirmative
vote of the majority of the shares represented at such meeting which are
entitled to vote on such matter shall be sufficient to adopt any resolution,
carry any motion, or take any action which requires the vote of the 
shareholders.

or shares of capital stock of the Corporation of any class, now or hereafter
issued, have any preemptive or preferential right to purchase or subscribe to
any shares of any class of capital stock in the Corporation now or hereafter
authorized or issued, nor to purchase or subscribe to any notes, debentures,
bonds or other securities of the Corporation (whether or not convertible into
or carrying rights, options or warrants to purchase shares of any class of
capital stock) now or hereafter authorized or issued, whether or not the

one Director, if only one Director has been elected and qualified, provided

Directors, if only two Directors have been elected and qualified, provided there
are only two shareholders of the Company at such time.  Within these limits, the
number of positions on the Board of Directors for any year shall be the number

absence of such a resolution, shall be the number of Directors elected at the
preceding Annual Meeting of Shareholders.  The Directors so elected shall
continue in office until their successors have been elected and qualified,
except that a Director shall cease to be in office upon his death, resignation,
lawful removal or court order decreeing that he is no longer a Director in

    Section 2.  The Board of Directors shall have power to fill vacancies that

adjournment, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to all Directors.

    Section 5.  Except as otherwise provided by these By-Laws, the act of a
majority of the Directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present at
the time of the act shall be the act of the Board of Directors.  Notwithstanding

may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors or of such committee by
means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment enabling all
