AWG 12/2 with ground on a dedicated circuit with a 20 amp breaker. That will safely supply 1920 watts of continuous power.
14-gauge wire is generally suitable for carrying up to 15 amps of current, which translates to about 1800 watts on a 120-volt circuit. Therefore, it can handle a 1500-watt load safely as long as the circuit is not overloaded and follows local electrical codes. However, for longer runs, or if the wire will be carrying close to its maximum capacity, using a thicker wire (like 12-gauge) may provide better safety and efficiency. Always consult a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with safety standards.
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.
A 12 gauge wire can support a load of approximately 2200 watts.

This is a voltage drop question and a voltage needs to be stated.
1000 watts = 1 kilowatt 1500 watts = 1.5 kilowatts
14 gauge will handle it with a 15 amp breaker. If you use 12 gauge use a 20 amp breaker.
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.
The recommended gauge of wire to use for a 12 or 14 gauge wire is typically 10 gauge wire.
