The ANL is a current limiter, not a noise limiter as the initials would make
you think. I'm not sure what ANL stands for. Probably a trade name. Anyhow,
their purpose is to protect the "B" lead against a large flow of current
from the battery if the alternator diodes get shorted to ground.

I would think the ANL would go on the output lead/terminal of the
alternator to reduce the noise component alternators generate. Time
to see guidance form a higher level, Bob would you mind commenting on
this topic.
