NFPA 13 does not specifically require the installation of a post indicator valve (PIV) for all fire protection systems. However, it does require that control valves, including PIVs, be accessible and identifiable. Local codes and regulations may have additional requirements regarding the installation of PIVs, so it's important to consult them in conjunction with NFPA 13.

What is NFPA standard for fire hose cabinet?

It depends upon whether you mean the standard that requires or allows a fire hose cabinet to be present (and their locations), or the requirements for installations, or for the manufacture of a fire hose cabinet, or the requirements for occupant training if there are fire hose cabinets. Regarding fire hose cabinet placement and training: that would be covered by the locally adopted fire code, such as NFPA 1 and NFPA 101® LIfe Safety Code®, under the "fire protection systems" required for a particular facility. The requirements for the mechanism, configuration and installation would be covered in the cross-referenced NFPA 14, "Standard for the Installation of Standpipe and Hose Systems" and maintenance would be covered in NFPA 25, "Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems."
