A plumber I do work for wants me to wire a line voltage low water cutoff for a boiler. I said I never did one but ok it couldn't be to hard. I looked online and the wiring is basically what I thought, just goes through the cutoff and to the boiler. What caught my attention is in the principles of operation for this cutoff (WATTS was the brand I was looking at), it said "water is used as a conductor" for the cutoff. I was thinking this was some kind of a float switch. I guess this probe is somehow isolated? all the water couldn't be electrified.
