You do not say that you prefer or recommend using thicker cables to be on the safe side or you normally have them at hand or you don't mind wasting a valuable metal with finite resource here on earth. But you say that a 1.5KW spindle cable should be 1.5mm2 and the control cables 0.75mm2 (when most control cables are 0.25mm2). This approach is all wrong!
