(apologies for false start above - I realised that the light would be on in that situation, so that it would be obvious that vthe circuit wasn't dead!!)

It's your prerogative to not agree, but before you take up BAS's suggestion and try the experiment, you might want to consdier this one possibility - and follow the red line from the supply L through Andy's body to earth (without any neutrals disconnected) ... EDIT: SEE CORRECTED VERSION ON PAGE 5... i don't agree with that. ... The neutral supply to the isolated circuit has to be disconnected.Not only that. Even without disconnecting anything, there could be a live conductor at one of the switches on the 'switched off' circuit - which would be a hazard (L-E shock) whether or not the neutral were disconnected.
Kind Regards, John
