Two thoughts-
14 ga at 120v and a 2000w bulb will draw more amps on a start up power surge will likely more amps than the wire will handle. A 20 amp should have 12 ga.
Other thought-
Some electrics have a shared neutral vs seperate one back to panel/rack can over load it.
A load meter may help here to find out what the draw is on start up.
