How do you plug in a toaster?
By plugging its cord into an electrical socket.
What happens when a wet electric plug is inserted in a socket?
When a wet electric plug is inserted into a socket, the moisture can create a conductive path for electricity, increasing the risk of short circuits, electrical shock, or fire. Water can compromise the insulation of the plug and socket, potentially leading to arcing or sparking. This hazardous situation can result in serious injury or damage to electrical devices. It's crucial to keep electrical plugs and sockets dry to ensure safety.
When removing an electrical plug from its socket grasp the electrical cord?
Do not remove any electrical plug by grabbing the wire. This weakens the connection at the plug. ALWAYS grab the plug itself when removing it.

What is the common way of referring to a plug and its corresponding socket as per the electrical engineering terminology?
Plug and socket, plug and socket outlet, plug and receptacle or plain plug and outlet all seem to be in common usage in the US. Plug and socket is possibly the only wording commonly used in the UK. [Plug and socket outlet sounds ok to a me, as a Brit, but we never really use that expression in the UK. Plug and outlet or plug and receptacle actually sound very strange!]

Travel iron that says 110volts 250watts is that ok to use in the USA afraid to plug it in it has a us plug?
110 volts is the standard electrical voltage in the USA, so you will not damage your iron, when you plug it in. If the iron is dual voltage (110/230 volts), move the voltage selector switch to 110 volts before you use it in the USA. However, there are two diffferent types of electrical socket in North America (with or without earth grounding). For safety reasons, I would not recommend using your iron (anywhere in the world), unless the plug has a round earth pin, in addition to the two flat bladed pins.
