definition: An outlet is something that lets you use electricity in a room or other place. It is usually built into a wall. Electricity will flow from an outlet to your TV when the TV is connected to the outlet by a cord with a plug.
My dad says that only a plug should go into an outlet. If you put something else into an outlet, it could be dangerous.
