The National Institute for Occupational Safety & Health has developed a useful database that contains information on applicable standards and regulations on various PPE.
I typed “arc flash” in the search field, and this is part of the list. Does very well. Not a ton of guidance but excellent in what it recommends.

About the Database
The PPE-Info Database serves as a compilation of Federal regulations and consensus standards for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
The purpose of the database is to provide standards developers, manufacturers, purchasers and end users of PPE with a comprehensive tool to be able to search for relevant information. This information includes the following:
- federal standards,
- associated product types,
- target occupational groups,
- basic conformity assessment specifications, and
- accredited lab information.
This database has the intention of growing, dependent upon how users of the database respond to it. All comments and suggestions to improve this site are welcome.
