An outlet that is at voltage. A dead outlet will not have zero voltage, thus cannot provide power.
There are no online outlet stores. Outlet malls are found all over the US, so depending on where you live, there is probably a local outlet mall in your area.
Many manufacturers will have outlet stores depending on where you live, as will the major retailers. If you don't have an Outlet store near you, you can also look for sales at regular stores which are often priced the same as outlet stores anyway.
To remove an electrical outlet safely and effectively, follow these steps: Turn off the power to the outlet at the circuit breaker. Use a voltage tester to ensure the outlet is not live. Unscrew the outlet cover plate and remove it. Unscrew the outlet from the electrical box. Disconnect the wires from the outlet, noting their positions. Install a new outlet or cap off the wires if not replacing the outlet. Screw the new outlet into the electrical box. Replace the cover plate. Turn the power back on and test the outlet to ensure it is working properly.
A spur outlet is a circuit that does not have a secondary path and is not part of the main ring. Spur sockets can have one cable connected to earth, live, and neutral.
To check an outlet using a multimeter, set the multimeter to measure AC voltage. Insert the black probe into the common (COM) port and the red probe into the voltage (V) port. Then, touch the probes to the outlet's live and neutral terminals. If the multimeter reads around 120 volts, the outlet is working correctly.
No, the circuit should not be energized when checking the resistance of a circuit.
In order to answer this question you have to tell us where you live. Otherwise I cannot tell you if there would be a jewelry outlet nearby. On the Internet argos.co.uk seems to be a good site.
It will depend on where your house is. If you live in Southern California there is a store in The Fashion Valley Mall. If you live in Florida, there's a store in Naples.
The smaller slot in an electrical outlet is typically the live or hot prong. It carries the current from the power source to the connected device. It is important to exercise caution when working with live wires to avoid electric shock.

Anything that is grounded. Something like you walk outlet. There are three holes in an outlet with various shapes depending on where you live. But one of the holes is for a grounding prong. You should make sure you know which one is the ground before sticking it into the outlet though.
The very first outlet in the circuit has a break, probably where the wires enter the receptacle.
