By placing the dimmer on the Neutral side of the load, the tank/fixed electrode is at or close to Ground potential, making accidental contact less likely to cause a serious shock. This is, of course, provided that the Neutral is properly bonded to Ground.
3:37 Actually salt water would be split into hydrogen and chlorine gas, which is even worse because other than an explosion hazard it's also a chemical hazard

Thank you! An explanation even a Flyman like myself can understand!
