The identification shall be painted on, engraved on, securely attached to, or adjacent to the following equipment associated with each elevator or the enclosures housing the following equipment associated with each elevator:
(a) the driving machine
(b) motor-generator set

(j) separately enclosed control components (e.g., motor circuit transformers, dynamic braking resistors, line rectifiers, or chokes)
(k) means to trip and/or reset the governor from outside the hoistway as permitted by 2.7.6.3.4
