You want CY cable and it can be found at most suppliers, just find the best price.

When it comes to inverters there's more to it than the motor current so my advice would be, go to this website,https://inverterdrive.com/group/AC-Inverter-Drives-230V/
To get the actual motor cable specification, choose an appropriate size inverter from a quality manufacturer such as ABB, there will be a link to the manual, download the manual and read through it for the cable data. That should give you the size, construction, max length, EMC connections, etc.
