|---|---|---|---|
| Cable | A STB or DVG that can receive television signals from a broadband, hybrid fiber/coaxial, or community cable distribution system with Conditional Access (CA) or a STB or DVG capable of receiving cable service after installation of a CableCARD or other type of Conditional Access system. | View | None |
| Cable digital transport adapter | Cable Digital Transport Adapter (DTA) is a minimally-configured Cable STB that can receive television signals from a broadband, hybrid fiber/coaxial, or community cable distribution system. | View | None |
| CableCARD | The capability to decrypt premium audio/video content and services and provide other network control functions via a plug-in Conditional Access module that complies with the ANSI/SCTE 28 HOST-POD Interface Standard1. | View | None |
| Cellular | A Telephone that converts sound into multiple-access (e.g., Code-Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), and fourth generation long term evolution (4G LTE)) packets for transmission through a cellular network. | View | None |
| Chemical dump | A low temp, stationary rack machine with a pumped recirculated sanitizing rinse. | View | None |
| Chemical sanitizing low temperature | A machine that applies a chemical sanitizing solution to the surfaces of dishes to achieve sanitization. | View | None |
| Chest | An enclosed refrigeration cabinet to which access is gained only through a top-opening door. | View | None |
| Closed case | A display or holding refrigerator where product is accessible for removal by opening or moving doors or panels | View | None |
| Clothes dryer | An appliance for drying loads of laundry. | View | None |
| Clothes Dryer Drum Capacity |
This is the drum capacity of the clothes dryers in cubic feet as measured by the U.S. Department of Energy test procedure, Code of Federal Regulations, Title 10, Section 430, Subpart B, Appendix D2. Products with a drum capacity less than 4.4 cubic feet are considered compact. |

| Clothes washer | A product designed to clean clothes, utilizing a water solution of soap and/or detergent and mechanical agitation or other movement, and must be one of the following classes: automatic clothes washers, semi-automatic clothes washers, and other clothes washers. | View | None |
| Clothes Washer Integrated Modified Energy Factor |
The quotient of the cubic foot (or liter) capacity of the clothes container divided by the total clothes washer energy consumption per cycle, with such energy consumption expressed as the sum of the machine electrical energy consumption, the hot water energy consumption, the energy required for removal of the remaining moisture in the wash load, and the combined low-power mode energy consumption. |
View | ft3/(kBtu/cycle) |
| Clothes Washer Modified Energy Factor |
Modified Energy Factor, MEF, is the energy performance metric for ENERGY STAR qualified clothes washers and all clothes washers as of February 1, 2013. MEF is the quotient of the capacity of the clothes container, C, divided by the total clothes washer energy consumption per cycle, with such energy consumption expressed as the sum of the machine electrical energy consumption, M, the hot water energy consumption, E, and the energy required for removal of the remaining moisture in the wash load, D. The higher MEF, the more efficient the clothes washer. The equation is: MEF = C/(M + E + D). |
View | ft3/(kBtu/cycle) |
| Clothes washer with dry cycle | A clothes washer that has an optional add-on dry cycle, where drying is accomplished through use of electricity or gas as a heat source and forced air circulation; drying cannot be selected independently from a wash cycle. | View | None |
| Cold only | Units that dispense cold water only. | View | None |
| Combination | A combination configuration may have a freezer on one side and a refrigerator on the other. | View | None |
| Combination | Combination case doors have one or more sliding doors on a certain part of a cabinet, often made of glass for display. | View | None |
| Combination | A cabinet which consists of two or more compartments with at least one of the compartments designed for the refrigerated storage of food and designed to be capable of achieving storage temperatures above 32 ¡F (0 ¡C) and below 39¡F (3.9 ¡C), and with at least one of the compartments designed for the freezing and storage of food at temperatures below 8 ¡F (-13.3 ¡C) which may be adjusted by the user to a temperature of 0 ¡F (-17.8 ¡C) or below. | View | None |
| Combination all in one clothes washer dryer | A consumer product designed to clean and dry fabrics in a single drum, where a separate drying cycle uses electricity or gas as a heat source and forced air circulation. | View | None |
| Combination oven | A device that combines the function of hot air convection (oven mode), saturated and superheated steam heating (steam mode), and combination convection/steam mode for moist heating, to perform steaming, baking, roasting, rethermalizing, and proofing of various food products. In general, the term combination oven is used to describe this type of equipment, which is self-contained. The combination oven is also referred to as a combination oven/steamer, combi or combo. | View | None |
| Combination unit | A television product in which the TV and one or more additional devices (e.g., DVD player, Blu-ray Disc player, Hard Disk Drive) are combined into a single enclosure, and which meets all of the following criteria: a) It is not possible to measure the power of the individual components without removing the product housing; and b) The product connects to a wall outlet via a single power cord. | View | None |
| Compact | A dishwasher that has a capacity of less than eight place settings plus six serving pieces as specified in ANSI/AHAM DW-1. | View | None |
| Compact | A clothes dryer with a drum capacity of less than 4.4 cubic feet. | View | None |
