Type of wire for high voltage applications

What kind of wire is most suitable for HV low-current applications, where the allowed maximum is 25 kV and 5 W?

By type of wire I mean core and type of insulation.

As far as I can guess, even if the wire is thin it will not create much heat, because of the very low current and low resistance (especially if copper core is used), but silicone wires will leak static electricity (And that's a problem) if it's not thick and I would prefer thinner wire if possible.On the other hand PTFE wires aren't usually rated at >15 kVBut perhaps coated wires is what I should be looking for?
