240's or maybe a 300mm, I honestly can't remember, it's been awhile since I've actually been hands on with large cabling. Usually we start running parallel cables when the sizes get much bigger.

Not absolutely sure, but as far as i'm aware at the moment, the largest LV multi core or single cable we have shown on the drawings right now is 120mm. For the very reason you state, and also smaller parallel cables will normally carry far more current than a single larger sized cable, with a few other benefits besides. Not least of which is the far easier installation!! lol!!
