wall sockets
Electrical outlet points
Wall sockets are electrical outlets mounted in walls, providing access to a building's power supply.
You plug appliances and devices into them.
The term emphasizes the fixture's location—distinguishing it from floor outlets or power strips.
In British English, these are often called power points or mains sockets.
