Swift set height of table

I have this table for which I want a certain height even when I only have one row. I want to make it scrollable (empty space at the bottom) even when I do not have enough rows to cover the whole screen.

I think I should work with: 

tableView.contentSize.height = 2000

But either I do not know where I should put it(should I reloadData for the table after?) or I have the wrong idea of how to do this.

Can anybody help?

EDIT: I have this view inside the table view which in some cases might be higher than the table and in this case I can not scroll it all. This is why I need to change the table in scroll height.

On iOS 10 it works as intended, but I have to fix it for iOS 8 and 9 also.

Only at this hour at night have I realised what works. I can't set the height of the content size directly, but like this: 

tableView.reloadData()
tableView.layoutIfNeeded()

var contentSizeTemp = tableView.contentSize
contentSizeTemp.height = menuViewHeight.constant 
tableView.contentSize = contentSizeTemp

This has been tested and works: 

override func viewDidAppear(animated: Bool) {
    super.viewDidAppear(animated)
    tableView.contentSize.height = 2000
}

What about setting constraints for table view? Or it's another case when they are not suitable? In this case table will have height which is equal screen height no matter how much rows it has. enter image description here
