Means shall be provided within the elevator car to gain access to the top emergency exit. A fixed vertical ladder of noncombustible material shall be provided on the inside of the hoistway to permit access from the top of the car to the hoistway entrance above. Means shall be provided to snap latch the cover closed or fully open.
5.8.1.6 Illumination of Cars
Elevators used primarily for the movement of personnel shall have the electrical power meet the requirements of IEEE 45, with car enclosure lighting to be supplied from the vessel's final emergency power source.

(b) the time for the car to travel the full travel, plus 10 s, with a minimum of 20 s if the full travel time is less than 10 s
5.8.1.7.3
This device shall not affect operation from the top-of-car inspection station.
5.8.1.7.4
Driving machines shall be provided with a manual means of operation, allowing the car to be moved to the nearest landing in the event of a power failure.
