hooked up

Linked to power

Hooked up covers connections of all kinds.

You hook up a device by connecting it to power or another system: Let me hook up the speakers.

Two people who hook up meet casually or become romantically or sexually involved: They hooked up at the party.

To be hooked up means to be supplied or connected: She got me hooked up with tickets.

A hookup is either the connection itself or a casual sexual encounter.
