You should really use twisted shielded pair to wire stepper motors and limit switches.
22-18 gauge should be fine
The twisted pair minimizes external effects of high frequency voltage out to motors.
There are instances of motor wires triggering end stops
Extruder heater and bed heater should have gauge wire to handle the high current --- 12 -- 14 gauge stranded wire
