What options do i have for terminating a 16mm 3 core swa into a plastic consumer unit?

terminate into metal adaptable box, fixed flush into the stud wall with noginns top and bottom, leave the lid off and put the plasterboard on with the cables of your SWA coming through where you want, then you can surface mount the CU using the noggins top and bottom of the A/B as fixing points. simples

Cheers jase,should've thought of this myself
