What does CL stand for in electrical?

Answer 1

I'm sorry, but you don't provide enough context in this question for it to be

clearly answered without wild speculation as to the subject being asked about.

• on schematics, the letter C followed by a number means a capacitor and the letter L followed by a number means an inductor/coil
• the pair of letters LC (in that order) means a tuned circuit composed of an inductor/coil and a capacitor
• on electrical service kilowatt hour meters, the letters CL followed by a number give its Service Ampacity (e.g. CL200 means "continuous rated for 200 Amperes")
• in business, there are several different companies operating under the name CL Electrical or some close variant, one of these in New Zealand the CL stands for Caldwell Levesque
• Cl (notice the capitalization) refers to the element chlorine, which is used in many electrolytes for batteries and capacitors
• some vacuum tubes contain the letters CL in their type identifier (e.g. 6CL6), here it stands for nothing it is only an arbitrarily assigned code for that type of tube
• In microwave, cellular, or mobile data service, the notation 'CL' on the tower drawing indicates the height above ground of the 'CenterLine' of the antenna

• etc.

Now I'm beginning to get bored doing the internet research you could have done

for yourself before asking.

Answer 2

CL in electrical typically stands for "Current Limitation," referring to a feature in a circuit or device that restricts the amount of current that can flow through it to prevent damage or overload.
