Hi,,

im doing a new build and the consumer unit is about 15-20mt from the meter cupboard. I’m going to use 25mm SWA 3 core, I have1 question I have to go up a long a short piece of stud work, do I need to put a box and blank on to identify the cable is there? Thanks
 
Swa concealed in a wall won’t need any labels or markers to show it is there.
P.s. you might well only need 2 core. Worth doing the calculations to find out.
