http://www.sumidacrossing.org/LayoutElectricity/MRRWire/WireAmpacity/ - says AWG 24 carries 3.5A open and 2A enclosed.
From Stefan H.:
Under the following assumptions up to 3A should be fine.
- 26AWG cat5/6 cable
- using two leads
- cable is relatively short
- normal ambient temps
- stepper control (at most use 75% of configured drive current)
