I have never seen any need for arc flash resistant clothing when replacing lamps, HID or otherwise.
I wear gloves and eye protection, ordinary work gloves unless the fixture is live, in which case I would consider linesmans gloves.
Surely, the purpose of arc flash clothing is to reduce the risk of burns in the event of flashover or arcing in high current switchgear.
The risks are real on service entrance conductors, large switchgear, high capacity feeders, POCO mains and so on.
But is there realy much risk from a 30 amp or less lighting circuit ?
Should arc flash resistant clothing be worn to plug a range into a 50 amp outlet ? surely not, yet the risks appear similar.
