18 AWG solid copper-clad steel (30%). How much power?

[N4NOO]

I am thinking of building a inverted-V fan-dipole and using 18 AWG solid copper-clad steel (30%) insulated wire.
My question is about power.  Will this gauge of wire handle full power?
And any other thoughts on using this gauge wire for this type of antenna are encouraged as well.

Thanks,

Hey Rick,  Yes, full power  (BTW, this topic/thread was just covered ... use the search engine?).

It depends on what full power is, but it will handle 1500 watts for sure.
