For motors I prefer to use 1mm cable (18awg) even when using nema 24's.
(my nema 34 on Z was pre wired with short 18awg so just made motors all the same)
I fitted GX20 aviation to motors and GX16 to everything else. Mine are 4 wire steppers.
I'd say have a look on Igus.
They do 3 & 4 core shielded all the way up to like 10 core and bigger.

When I need to I'll likely purchase the CF6. But the CF140.UL is cheaper.
For board to drivers I'm using 20awg (individual wires no shield) I will shield when upgrading.
For psu to drivers I'm using 14awg (individual wires no shield) (I'm at 60Vdc) your 542 can only do 50v max.
On this page you can put in your requirments down the left.

Such as:
No. cores & conductor nominal cross section [mm˛]
such as:
(4G1.0)C = 4 core shielded 1mm
4G1.0 = 4 core unshielded 1mm
(3G0.75)C = 3 core shielded 0.75mm
3G0.75 = 3 core unshielded 0.75mm
My mill setup has had no problems with wiring.Last edited by dazp1976; 30-08-2020 at 12:07 AM.
