Exhibit 10(1).2

                                AMENDMENT NO. 1

                                      TO

                    PPL OFFICERS DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN

     WHEREAS, PPL Services Corporation ("PPL") has adopted the PPL Officers
Deferred Compensation Plan ("Plan") effective July 1, 2000; and

     WHEREAS, the Plan was amended and restated effective July 1, 2000; and

     WHEREAS, PPL desires to further amend the Plan;

     NOW, THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended as follows:

 I.  Effective July 1, 2000, Article 10 is amended to read:

10.  Termination or Amendment. Each Participating Company shall have the power
     to amend the Plan by or pursuant to action of its board of directors, but
     any such amendment to the Plan must be approved by PPL Services
     Corporation, and shall only apply to those Participants who are employees
     of the Participating Company authorizing the amendment. Any amendment that
     significantly affects the cost of the Plan or significantly alters the
     benefit design or eligibility requirements of the Plan shall be adopted by
     both PPL Services Corporation and any Participating Company whose employees
     are affected. In addition, the Employee Benefit Plan Board may adopt any
     amendment that does not significantly affect the cost of the Plan or
     significantly alter the benefit design or eligibility requirements of the
     Plan. Each amendment to the Plan will be binding on the Participating
     Company to which it applies. No termination or amendment shall (without
     Participant's consent) alter: a) Participant's right to payments of amounts
     previously credited to Participant's Account, which amounts shall continue
     to earn interest as provided

                                      -1-


     for herein as though termination or amendment had not been effected, b) the
     amount or times of payment of such amounts which have commenced prior to
     the effective date of such termination or amendment, or c) the rights set
     forth in paragraph 5 to designate beneficiaries in the event of
     Participant's death or alter Participant's right to monthly supplemental
     payments under paragraph 7; provided, however, that no such consent may
     accelerate the Participant's payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
     PPL is liquidated, the EBPB shall have the right to determine the Total
     Amount Payable and any monthly supplemental payments payable under
     paragraph 7 to Participant, and to cause the amount so determined to be
     paid in one or more installments or upon such other terms and conditions
     and at such other time (not beyond the time provided for herein) as the
     EBPB determines to be just and equitable. Any determinations made pursuant
     to the preceding sentence shall be consistent as to all Participants.

II. Except as provided for in this Amendment No. 1, all other provisions of the
    Plan shall remain in full force and effect.

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment No. 1 is executed this _____ day of
_____________________, 2000.
