      compensated at an additional annual rate of $3,000.  Effective July 1,
      1995, the common share portion of the annual retainer for a Trustee who
      is not an employee of Northeast Utilities or its subsidiaries was
      increased to 250 common shares of Northeast Utilities, and the
      compensation for Chairs of Board Committees was increased to $3,500.

      Prior to the beginning of each calendar year, each non-employee Trustee
      may irrevocably elect to have all or any portion of the annual retainer
      cash compensation paid in the form of common shares of Northeast
      Utilities.  Pursuant to the Northeast Utilities Deferred Compensation
      Plan for Trustees, each Trustee may also irrevocably elect to defer
      receipt of some or all cash and/or share compensation.

      In addition to the above compensation, Dr. de Planque and Mr. Turner
      performed other extra services for the Company during 1995 and received
      $2,000 and $1,000, respectively.

      During 1995, each Director of PSNH who was not an employee of Northeast
      Utilities or its subsidiaries was compensated at an annual rate of
      $10,000 in cash and received $500 for each meeting of the Board or its
      committees attended.  Each of the Chairman of the Audit Committee, the
      Corporate Responsibility Committee, the Finance Committee and the Utility
      Operations Committee were compensated during 1994 at an additional rate
      of $1,500.

                               SECTION 16(A) REPORTING

      Mr. Eugene D. Jones, a former Trustee of Northeast Utilities, who retired
      on May 23, 1995, filed a late report on Form 4 in September, 1995,

      place in May, June, and July, 1995.

Notes:

1.  Awards under the 1993 and 1994 short-term programs of the Northeast Utilities
    Executive Incentive Plan (EIP) were paid the next year in the form of cash.
    In accordance with the requirements of the SEC, these awards are included as
    "bonus" in the years earned.

2.  "All Other Compensation" consists of employer matching contributions under
    the Northeast Utilities Service Company Supplemental Retirement and Savings
    Plan, generally available to all eligible employees.

3.  Awards under the short-term program of the EIP have typically been made by
    the Committee on Organization, Compensation and Board Affairs (the Committee)
    in April each year.  Based on preliminary estimates of corporate performance,
    the short-term incentive awards for Mr. Fox and Mr. Busch will be $246,168
    and $147,707, respectively.  These amounts reflect a reduction of $82,056 and
    $49,236, respectively, or 25 percent of the pro forma short-term award, which
    will be held back and forfeited unless the Committee determines that the
    Company has met specific nuclear performance goals.  The estimated short-term
    incentive awards for the other named officers, subject to final individual
    performance adjustments, are as follows: Mr. MacKenzie - $128,841; Mr. Kinney
    - $86,980; Mrs. Grise $86,980; Mr. Ellis - $114,883; and Mr. Opeka $40,000.

4.  Mr. Ellis retired as Chairman of the Board and a Trustee of Northeast
    Utilities on August 1, 1995.

5.  Mr. Opeka retired as Executive Vice President - Nuclear of Northeast
    Utilities' service company subsidiaries on November 1, 1995.


PENSION BENEFITS

  The following table shows the estimated annual retirement benefits payable to
an executive officer of Northeast Utilities 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, available to all officers, makes up for benefits
lost through application of certain tax code limitations on the benefits that
may be provided under the Retirement Plan and includes as "compensation" awards
under the Executive Incentive Compensation Program and Executive Incentive Plan
and deferred compensation (as earned). 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 Board of Trustees to participate in the
target benefit and who remain in the employ of Northeast Utilities companies
until at least age 60 (unless the Board of Trustees sets an earlier age).  Each
of the executive officers of Northeast Utilities named in the Summary
Compensation Table is currently eligible for a target benefit.

  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, but does not include employer matching contributions under the 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 Northeast Utilities and its subsidiaries under long term
disability plans and policies.

  As of December 31, 1995, the five executive officers named in the Summary
Compensation Table above had the following years of credited service for
retirement compensation purposes:  Mr. Fox - 31,  Mr. Busch - 22, Mr. MacKenzie
- - 30, Mr. Kinney - 34, and Mrs. Grise - 15.  Assuming that retirement were to
occur at age 65 for these officers, retirement would occur with 43, 38, 41, 36
and 36 years of credited service, respectively.

  In 1992, Northeast Utilities entered into an agreement with Mr. Fox to
provide for an orderly Chief Executive Officer succession.  The agreement
states that if Mr. Fox 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 does not address Mr. Fox's normal compensation and benefits,
which are to be determined by the Committee on Organization, Compensation and
Board Affairs and the Board in accordance with their customary practices. The
agreement terminates two years after Northeast Utilities gives Mr. Fox a
notice of termination, but no earlier than the date he becomes 55.

                    REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To Northeast Utilities and Subsidiaries:

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of
capitalization of Northeast Utilities (a Massachusetts trust) and subsidiaries
as of December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated statements of
income, common shareholders' equity, cash flows, and income taxes for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 1995, included in the 1995
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 audits.

We conducted our audits 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 audits provide 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, 1995 and 1994, and the results of their
operations and cash flows for each of the three years in the period then ended
December 31, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.



As explained in Note 1A to the financial statements, effective January 1, 1993,
Northeast Utilities and subsidiaries changed their method of accounting for
property taxes.

     SECTION 1.  All meetings of the stockholders shall be held at the
principal office of the corporation or at such other place within or without
the State of New Hampshire as shall be designated in the call therefor.  An
annual meeting shall be held each year on the first Wednesday of February, or
on such other date as the Board shall determine, at the time designated in
the call, for the election of directors and the transaction of such other
business as may come before it.  

     SECTION 2.  Special meetings of the stockholders may be called by vote
of the Board, or on written request of stockholders holding not less than
one-tenth in number of the total outstanding shares of capital stock of the
corporation entitled to vote at the meeting, or as provided in the Articles
of Agreement, or in such other manner as may be provided by statute.  In case
an annual meeting shall be omitted through inadvertence or otherwise, the
business of such meeting may be transacted at a special meeting duly called
for the purpose and in such case all references to the annual meetings in
these By-Laws shall be deemed to refer to such special meeting held in place
of the annual meeting.  

     SECTION 3.  Notice of the time and place of each annual meeting shall be
sent by mail to the recorded address of each stockholder entitled to vote
thereat, or delivered in person to each such stockholder, not less than ten
days nor more than sixty days (including the day of mailing or delivery)
before the date of the meeting.  Like notice shall be given of all special
meetings, except in cases where other special method of notice may be
required by statute, in all which cases the statutory method shall be
followed.  The notice of stockholders' meeting shall state the objects of the
meeting.  Less than ten days' notice of any stockholders' meeting shall be
sufficient if all the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting consent
in writing to the notice actually given; and any meeting held without the
notice herein provided for, and all action taken at such meeting, shall be
legal and valid if all the stockholders entitled to notice thereof (a) are
present in person or represented by proxy thereat and no objection is made by
anyone so present, (b) waive notice thereof in writing, or (c) sign a written
consent to the records thereof.  

     SECTION 4.  At any meeting of stockholders, except where a different
quorum is required by law, by the Articles of Agreement or by these By-Laws,
a representation in person or by proxy of a majority of the number of shares
of stock outstanding and entitled to vote upon a question to be considered or
at any election of officers or directors or a class of directors to be held
at the meeting, shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for the
consideration of such question or for such election, and in case a class of
stock is entitled to vote upon a question or at an election as a separate
class a representation of a majority of the number of outstanding shares of
that class shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for action by that
class, except that a majority vote of whatever stock shall be represented
shall be sufficient for (a) adjourning from time to time until a quorum shall
be obtained or (b) adjourning sine die.

     SECTION 5.  When a quorum for the consideration of a question is present
at any meeting, a majority in interest of the stock represented at the
meeting and entitled to vote upon the question shall decide the question, or
in case two or more classes of stock are entitled to vote as separate classes
upon such question a majority interest of the stock represented at the
meeting of each such class shall determine the action of that class except in
either case where a larger vote is specifically required by law, by the
Articles of Agreement or by these By-Laws.  When a quorum for an election is
present at any meeting a plurality of the votes cast for any office shall
elect to such office except where a larger vote is specifically required by
law, by the Articles of Agreement or by these By-Laws.

     SECTION 6.  Except as specifically provided in the Articles of Agreement
and these By-Laws, stockholders shall have one vote for each share of stock
owned and entitled to vote.  Stockholders may vote either in person or by
proxy in writing dated not more than eleven months before the meeting named
therein which shall be filed with the Secretary at the meeting or any
adjournment thereof before being voted.  Such proxies shall entitle the
holders thereof to vote at any adjournment of such meeting but shall not be
valid after the final adjournment of such meeting.  Every proxy shall be
revocable at the pleasure of the stockholder executing it, except as
otherwise provided therein and as permitted by law. 

     SECTION 7.  At all meetings of stockholders, either regular or special,
a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote shall
constitute a quorum but less than a majority may adjourn a meeting from time
to time until a quorum be present.

     SECTION 5.  Any resolution in writing concerning action to be taken by

Directors 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 Directors participating in the meeting to hear one
another, and participation in a meeting in such manner shall constitute
presence in person at such meeting.

     SECTION 7.  Any Director may be removed for any reason inimical to the
best interests of the corporation by a majority vote of the Board.  Vacancies
in the Board however occurring shall be filled by the remaining members of
the Board subject to removal at any meeting of the stockholders called for
that purpose.

     SECTION 8.  The Board of Directors shall have the power to determine who
shall be authorized on the corporation's behalf to sign bills, notes,

                              due December 31, 2000




Date:  December 7, 1995                                [$100,000.00]


                                   SECTION 1


1.1  SOUTHWEST HEC ENERGY SERVICES L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability
Company, ("Company"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ARIZONA
PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY, an Arizona corporation, or its assignees (the
"Holder"), the principal sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars, plus all
accrued interest, on December 31, 2000, or such other later date as may be
stipulated to by the Holder (the "Maturity Date"), at the office of the
Holder referred to below.  Interest during the first year following the date
of this Note shall be [8.04%] per annum and shall accrue on the unpaid
principal balance from time to time outstanding hereunder at a rate equal to
the Variable Rate.  For purposes of this Note, the Variable Rate shall be
adjusted annually, as described in Section 1.2 below.

1.2       Computation of Interest

     Interest on this Note shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
of twelve 30-day months.  On the one year anniversary date of this Note, and
annually thereafter ("Interest Adjustment Date"), the interest rate on the
indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall be adjusted to equal the annual
weighted average cost of long-term debt of Arizona Public Service Company,
determined as of December 31 of each year and as reported in FERC Form 1.

1.3       Payment of Interest

     Beginning on December 31, 1996, and on the same date of each subsequent
year of this Note ("Interest Payment Date"), the Company shall make an
installment payment of all accrued but unpaid interest on this Note.  Except
as provided herein, the Company shall not be required to make any payments of
principal under this Note until the Maturity Date.

1.4       Payment of Note

     All unpaid principal and accrued interest under this note shall become
due and payable on the first of the following to occur:

          1.4.1     Maturity Date

          1.4.2     The occurrence of an Event of Default, as defined below,
          which default is not cured within the time specified below.

          1.4.3     The admission of any new members to the Company.

          1.4.4     The sale or transfer of assets or ownership interests, as
          described in Section 1.5 below.


          1.4.5     Failure of the Arizona Corporation Commission to grant a
          waiver from the provisions of A.A.C. R14-2-801 et seq. or to
          approve the Company as an affiliate of the Holder under the
          Affiliated Interest Rules, ACCR R-14-4 802 et seq.

     Nothing herein shall be construed to limit any rights of the Holder to
     exercise any option to acquire equity interests in the Company.

1.5  Due on Sale.  Pursuant to Section 1.4.4, this Note shall become due upon
the occurrence of any of the following events:

          1.5.1     The sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the 
          assets or contract rights of the Company to any party other than
          the Holder. 

          1.5.2     The sale or transfer of any interest held by HEC Inc. in
          the Company as of the date of this Note to any party other than the
          Holder or any wholly owned subsidiary of HEC Inc.

          1.5.3     The admission of any new member or equity holder in the
          Company.

In addition to payment of all unpaid and accrued interest and principal, in
the event that any such sale or transfer occurs prior to the Maturity Date of
this Note and Holder does not elect to convert any portion of the unpaid
balance of this Note to an equity interest in the Company, then the Company
shall also pay Holder an amount equal to 20% of all unpaid principal and
accrued interest upon such sale or transfer.

1.6  Payment of Principal Before Due Date

     So long as Company does not make any distribution to any Member which
would reduce such Member's capital account below an amount equal to such
Member's the total amount of such Member's cumulative capital contributions
to the Company ("Capital Distribution"), the Company shall not be required to
pay any portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Note prior to the
due date.  However, prior to making any Capital Distribution the Company
shall make a payment to Holder in an amount equal to any accrued but unpaid
interest plus a principal payment in the amount of such Capital Distribution.

1.7  Security Interest

receivables.  Upon request from APS, the Company shall execute a security
agreement and any other instruments necessary to perfect such security

          (c)  the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of
