This random table I found [0] says 23 gauge, or just over 0.5mm as the minimum size for transmitting 5 amps over short distances. But that’s probably for a solid conductor, so braided would be a bit thicker I guess. Still, it’s not that thick, since only one pair of the 6(?) needs to take the current.
