The term switch leg really means switched leg. It is the wire that comes off of the bottom terminal of a switch and when the switch is turned on becomes hot. This is the leg that turns the load off and on.

What is the purpose of a double pole switch for immersion heater?

In North America both legs of the 240 volt supply are "hot" to ground. A two pole switch is used to break both legs from the supply. If only a single pole switch is used one leg will open and the tank would not operate but if you were depending on the switch to isolate the supply it could be dangerous. The other leg could lead to a shock if you touched the unswitched leg to ground while working on the tank.
