Default Excessive voltage drop at outlet cause induction cooktop to not work

I have an outlet with excessive voltage drop when I plug in an induction cooktop (1000 watt). The outlet measures 120 but the voltage drops to 105 when the cooktop is plugged in. The cooktop stops working because of the low voltage. This does not occur in other outlets.

On line side or probably load side (in this case), the the three passive linear circuit elements of power processing that remove a properly calculated voltage drop are an inductor, capacitor or a resistor.
