Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.If the voltage is 120 volts at 1500 watts then the current is 12.5 amps (A = W/V). The term "heavy duty extension cord" has no meaning unless a wire size, voltage rating and insulation temperature factor is mentioned. An extension cord with #12 wire in it will work fine. Try and keep the cord as short as possible so as cord heating does not become a problem.
