260 volts
Sometimes called an extension cable or power board, it "lengthens" the reach of your electrical outlet.
Could be a loose connection somewhere, or a bad switch, or a bad outlet.
Most switched outlets have one half that's hot all the time. If that's the case it will be as easy as changeing the outlet. In the center of each side of the outlet there is a small piece of copper connecting the two screws. Look and see if the copper piece is broken on the hot side, if it is then replace the outlet using the constant hot. Cap off the unused wire from the switch. If both sides of the outlet are switched then you can remove the two wires from the switch and tie them together. then either replace the switch and have a dummy or put on a blank cover. You should be all set.

Because it has electricity flowing to the outlet.
to many electrical cords plugged into one outlet
A 15 amp 125 volt outlet is a household outlet.
An electrical outlet is a physical object. It does not produce energy. What does produce the energy is electricity, which travels through the outlet to power your devices. Electricity is its own form of energy, called "electrical energy."So, no, an outlet is not an example of chemical energy.
The definition of an outlet in Article 100 of the National Electrical Code book (US) is: "Outlet. A point on the wiring system at which current is taken to supply utilization equipment." You can have a receptacle outlet, lighting outlet, or some other hardwired equipment outlet. <<>> The definition of an outlet in Section 0 (Object, Scope and Definitions) of the Canadian Electrical Code book is: "Outlet. A point in the wiring installation at which current is taken to supply utilization equipment."
"How do you unhook a hot tub that was connected to an '''outside electrical outlet?'''" .... Just unplug it
Electrical wall outlet having two plug receptacles.
The most common one you see around your home is the GFI outlet, (ground-fault interrupter), which monitors the balance of electricity going through the plug. If there is an imbalance, the switch will 'trip' and shut off the current. Another electrical safety device a plastic plug that is inserted into an unused electrical outlet to prevent children from sticking things into the plug holes and getting electrocuted. The third item is the breakers that control electrical current to the different parts of your home. This works on a larger scale, but is similar to how a GFI outlet works. Instead of monitoring just one plug, a breaker protects an entire circuit (or electrical zone) of a home or building.
