If the supporting data does not provide information that shows the devices to be qualified for Class lE service then the Contractor will be required to replace the existing devices with fully qualified devices.
2.
Cancel orders for new devices and reorder devices from GE/NED with a requirement for environmental qualification in l
accordance with IEEE 323 1974.
