Copper wire current ratings assume 10 amps per mm2 for currents up to a few amps. 26 AWG wire has a cross sectional area of 0.13 mm2 so this logic says 1.3 amps.

A 26 AWG wire typically has a current rating of around 0.22-0.3 amps for power transmission in open air or an enclosed environment. This may vary based on factors like temperature and insulation material.
