multiplug

(India) An electrical socket.

A plugpoint is Indian English for an electrical socket or wall outlet — the place where you plug in your charger, appliance, or device. It's a straightforward regional compound that's completely standard in Indian English but sounds charmingly literal to speakers of other English varieties. Whether you're asking a hotel receptionist if the room has a plugpoint near the bed or hunting for one in a crowded café, the word does its job with zero ambiguity.

(chiefly, electrical engineering) A device (or, more precisely, a mating pair of devices, often a plug and a socket) for connecting together two wires, cables, or hoses, allowing electricity or fluid to flow but also allowing easy disconnection and reconnection when necessary.

(electronics, US) An electrical cord with a plug one end, and a single socket or a multi-port socket at the other end, used for powering one or more devices at a distance, too far from the wall outlet to be reached by the normal cords of the device or devices.
