I don't know how they're designed, but it could be that if they are broken they fail in the off position. Bad for the tank, but nobody gets electrocuted. On ReefCentral there are some topics on this- seems like quite a few people manage to electrocute themselves.

Yes but there are also 15,000 or so members so you chances of hearing about it are better.
