L can either mean the latent heat of vaporization or condensation.

The latent heat of vaporization is the energy required to completely turn 1 kilogram of a liquid into a gas at its boiling point.

The latent heat of condensation is the energy required to completely turn 1 kilogram of a solid into a liquid at its melting point.
