AWG 12/2 with ground on a dedicated circuit with a 20 amp breaker. That will safely supply 1920 watts of continuous power.
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.
Wire size is based on the amperage that the device draws. To find the amperage of any device use the following equation, Amps = Watts/Volts 2000/240 = 8.3 amps.
A #14 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 15 amps.
Wire size is based on amperage of the load. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. As you can see with out a voltage stated an answer can not be given.

How many watts and romex gauge is safe for a 15amp breaker?
Assuming 120 VAC in a residence maximum watts = 15 x 120 = 1800 Watts. For a continuous load you can support 1440 watts which is 80& of maximum. You need 14 AWG gauge wire.
What size hot wire do you need for a 1900 watt amp?
A 12 gauge wire can support a load of approximately 2200 watts.
What gauge wire would you need 5600 watts 240 volts 23.3 amps?
AWG # 10.
How many watts is a 240 volt 20 amp fuse rated for with 12 gauge wire?
4800
What is the wire size required for 1800 watts for lamps?
14 gauge will handle it with a 15 amp breaker. If you use 12 gauge use a 20 amp breaker.
How many watts and romex gauge is safe for a 15amp breaker?
Assuming 120 VAC in a residence maximum watts = 15 x 120 = 1800 Watts. For a continuous load you can support 1440 watts which is 80& of maximum. You need 14 AWG gauge wire.
What gauge wire do you need for 100 watts over 10 feet?
To answer this question a voltage has to be stated.
How many amps is 2 gauge wire 12 volts DC good for?
5000 watts
What size hot wire do you need for a 1900 watt amp?
A 12 gauge wire can support a load of approximately 2200 watts.
If I have 150ft of 10 gauge wire with 60 amp service how many amps and watts do I have available at the end of the line?
10 gauge wire will only run up to 30 amps
What gauge wire 800 watts in 100 feet?
This is a voltage drop question and a voltage needs to be stated.
What gauge wire would you need 5600 watts 240 volts 23.3 amps?
AWG # 10.
How many watts is a 240 volt 20 amp fuse rated for with 12 gauge wire?
4800
How many watts in 2450 mhz.?
1500 watts
How many kilowatts are in 1500 watts?
1000 watts = 1 kilowatt 1500 watts = 1.5 kilowatts
What you using wire gauge in mm on 1kilowatt?
Wire gauge is determined by the capacity in amps. At 120 volts it requires 8.33 amps to provide 1000 watts. The typical residential application would require 18 AWG wire 1.024 mm in diameter.
What is the wire size required for 1800 watts for lamps?
14 gauge will handle it with a 15 amp breaker. If you use 12 gauge use a 20 amp breaker.
