Why should switch be connected only on the live wire and never on the neutral wire?

Last answer: Current runs from the transformer, through the protective device, through the load and back through the protective device (if on RCD). If the protective device is only a CB the current passes ... the circuit will operate correctly but this is an unsafe practice and does not meet the standards.
