What PPE is required for working around 480V boxes? Hard-hat w/Arc rated sheild, full suit, etc. OSHA or the NFPA do not really spell it out. Gloves and FR clothing are already required at my place of work.
 
Arc flash PPE is not dependent upon voltage, it is dependent on the available incident energy.

You need to have calculations performed to determine the amount of energy at each location where you are working or your employer may allow the use of the NFPA 70E "task tables".
