It's a bit interesting -
463.1.2 has "A single-pole switching device shall not be placed in the neutral conductor except for the connection of the control device for lighting circuits as shown in Fig 46.1.
Switching of the neutral shall be in compliance with 530.3.3"
The last sentence is not worded brilliantly to my mind - it HAS to mean that doing the above meets the requirement, and that could be expressed better e.g. Switching of the neutral in these circumstances is deemed to meet the requirements of 530.3.3
[530.3.3 says "A switching device shall not be inserted in the neutral conductor alone".
This is of course the commonly understood principle.]
