What is a "point" in this sentence?
Many electrical accidents are caused by ignoring common safety rules; for example, failing to replace old and faulty wiring; by loading too few outlets or points with too many appliances; and with the thoughtless placing of wires or cords leading from outlets to table or floor lamps.
-> I know what an "outlet" is, but I don't know what a "point" is. Thanks for your help!
