exactly what truckster says. do not chase lath and plaster, you'll destroy it's strength. treat it as a studded wall. what i try and do is cut for the box on a vertical 3x2 timber, chip it out, and fix metal box to timber.
If possible don't chase them, you can usually feed the cable down behind the lathes. You can sometimes cut a neat hole to fix a plasterboard box if the plaster isnt too thick or screw a batten across the hole and fix a metal box to that.
