Not too many folks out here refer to them as sockets anymore;
that term is typically reserved for light bulbs, though there is some
variation,
based on age, and geographical location.
Generally, people call them "outlets", but the NEMA terminology is
"receptacle".
Do an e-bay search on: +receptacle 20A 20 Amp (include the +
sign)
check-mark "include titles and descriptions" . . . and then sort by
price+shipping lowest first.
That should help you find what you're looking for. . .
