Thanks for that. When must your panels be up-and-running to be grandfathered?

Nevertheless, the CA Rule 21 requirement that homeowners have their systems shut off during grid downtimes seems nutty. As I understand it, those who install back-up generators have to install automatic cut-off switches to prevent power from going to the grid. Why can't the same be applied to panels?
