With that cooker connection unit, I believe you need a single flush back box. Deeper the better.

Not that simple I'm afraid, I have a single pattress box but it's smaller than the outlet plate meaning the bottom cables would be outside the box.
It's to be fitted inside a base unit so I would rather have no visible cables, hence I need the specific box to suit the plate.

Anyone know if any of the following are ok to buy from please?

The cables will still be outside the box as that is how cooker connectors are.

Not sure about the offset screw holes.

the offset holes are ok with the click brand Dual outlet plate (but not suitable for the other brand)

I guess you are saying you don't want to fit it where it is now for some reason.

It isn't anywhere now as the kitchen is empty, I will fit it in one of the new base units in between the oven housing and hob drawer pack.

I know the cables will be outside the box but they will go straight out through the bottom shelf of the unit and back up the service void, and at least this box is the same size as the outlet plate, A standard box is about 50mm shorter in height than the plate.

The plate has off set holes to line up with the back box off set holes although I'm not sure why they need to be off set!

It's probably to stop anyone trying to attach any ('single') accessory other than a cooker outlet to the box, which could be dangerous.
