Hi Andrew, yes, pressing any of the buttons or turning the variable
speed control on the switch relays a signal to the inverter itself
which in turn controls the current & motor function of the lathe. If I
recall correctly cable size was way less than 0.25sq mm & had tiny
stranded cores.

If you're certain it is low voltage low current, burglar alarm cable would
probably do as it is flex rather than the solid core of telephone cable.

Otherwise check the likes of RS Components - but they are expensive for
small orders.
