The point of my first post was more to re-assure the OP "Bee" that his choice, which he'd already purchased before you posted would be fine. This by now he surely knows because some Muppet started up the thread again 3 mth's after he posted.!!
OK, so you would not use 0.75mm2, just want to comfort someone who bought the cable... well, the reason for the Muppet to start up the thread LESS than 2 mnts after Bees last post was to try to open the minds of those who are not sure, so they just follow the stream and go after the majority on these forums. I think that can hardly be called narrow minded, more like an effort to help. Considering the costs of the cable, and compared to the price of the CNC the "use what I have available" principle is really very narrow minded and wrong. Apparently you are more keen on name calling than admitting that I was right, there are ONLY advantages of a stronger, better cable, no disadvantages. You don't answer my question because there is just one answer. Anyway, at least in this post, you made it clear that the 0.75mm2 would have not been your choice, so basically, we actually agree.

...and in all honesty, if you really know what I think you know, then I don't think you would have used 0.75mm2 cable if that was all you had at home. I think you would have done the same I would have done, ordered 1.5mm2 and possibly used the thinner one until the better one arrives...

Like I said, what works and what is right are not necessarily the same.
