Do you mean the latest NFPA® 70E?
Or do you mean that there should be newer standards on this matter?

In the first case I have the ‘NFPA® 70E Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace 2012 Edition’ in 130.5 B they talk about arc flash PPE and refer to Annex D and Annex H.
In 130.7 there are a few tables with clothing split in Hazard/Risk category 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4.
