13)
Do you assert that RG-59 cable is not technically qualified to perform the functions required by the 12 RG-58 cables that were replaced?
If so, please state for each cable (a) the function (s), that cannot be performed; (b) the conditions'under which the function (s) cannot be performed; (c) the safety-related nature of the function (s);
(d) the nature of the technical inadequacy; (e) the effect of this technical inadequacy on func-tional performance; (f) all the facts underlying this assertion and explain exactly how those facts support the assertion.
SUPPLEMr.NTED ANSWER:
NECNP asserts that RG-59 cable is not tech-nically qualified to perform the 12 RG-58 cable functions in an accident environment because Applicants have not specified per-formance criteria for each such application.
Our reasons for this position are described in NECNP's Motion for Clarification or Reconsideration of the Board's Order of June 23, 1988, dated h!k

. July 13, 1988, and NECNP's Reply to NRC Staff Response to Board Request of July 20, 1988, and Affidavit of Newell K. Woodward, dated July 27, 1988.
With respect to technical qualifications for performance under normal operating conditions, NECNP does not assert that RG-59 cable is not technically qualified to perform the functions required by the 12 RG-58 cables that were replacede This supplemental response is based on NECNP consultant Robert D.
