Switched neutral

Harry Macdonald
Looking at the BS7671 AMD2 out for consultation, I noticed clause 463.1.2. This shows an arrangement whereby the control device for a lighting circuit is switched by a switch on the neutral side of the device.

Clearly this works but why would anyone want to do this?

    I agree absolutely, but for those who think that the switch is always on the live side of any device, a warning could be a life saver.

    Devices with two sources of supply are usually identified as such and this seems to be very similar.
