How do these plug in panels prevent backfeeding in the case of a complete outage? IE: if lines are down and linemen go to work on lines with trees on them etc how can they be assured they're not energized?

The inverters are meant to come with anti-islanding to detect when it's been disconnected from the grid, which applies to both regular PV installs and a plug-in panel.
