plugging in
Joining to outlet
Plugging in is the act of connecting something to a power source or system by inserting a plug into an outlet or port: I'm plugging in my phone to charge.
Figuratively, plugging in means engaging with or connecting to something: She's been plugging in to the local music scene.
To plug in can also mean joining an ongoing activity or process: Let me know when you're ready for me to plug in.
