Doug, a quick search through NFPA70 (USA national electrical code) says in article 645 Information Technology Equipment:
645.16 Marking. Each unit of an information technology system supplied by a branch circuit shall be provided with a manufacturer's nameplate, which shall also include the input power requirements for voltage, frequency, and maximum rated load in amperes. I endorse John Woodgate's answer; if in doubt, label it. I'm delighted to see a few familiar names after my long hiatus from this forum. I'm now semi-retired from the industry.

Colleagues, I have a client who has installed a COTS UPS in an industrial control panel. The UPS is being used to keep the HMI alive in a power outage or if the disconnecting device is switched off. I have scoured the resources that I have, and I can find nothing that requires a label on the outside of the panel to indicate that there is a UPS inside. EN 60204-1:2018 does not address this. I have a copy of EN IEC 62040-1, and it does not require a hazard warning label anywhere. Any guidance you might offer is appreciated.
