It could be a loose termination on the back of the outlet or the plug that you have plugged into the outlet. Check the plug end first as this is the easiest. Make sure that connection points are tight. To check the outlet turn the supply breaker OFF at the distribution panel and remove the outlet from the wall. Check the connections for tightness. If any component looks burnt or has been over heated, replace the device.
