| Summary: | Abstract Null energy condition (NEC) is revisited in the context of thin-shell wormholes (TSW). In a generic spherically symmetric configuration we introduce the condition upon which NEC is satisfied. Also, we present a general condition which specifies the stability of the generic spherically symmetric TSW against a radial linear perturbation. Furthermore, we introduce a specific bulk metric in the framework of gravity coupled minimally with nonlinear electrodynamics such that the corresponding TSW satisfies NEC, unconditionally. We study the mechanical stability of this TSW and show that, with a variable equation of state of the fluid present at the throat, this TSW remains stable irrespective of the value of the speed of sound.
