No, electrical plugs should not get hot. If your outlet is hot, that can be an indication of loose or faulty wiring that should be addressed right away. A hot outlet can pose a huge risk if it becomes too hot or there is an electrical shock, as it can lead to an electrical fire. If you notice your outlet is hot to the touch, you should remove anything that is plugged in and have an electrician inspect the outlet to determine what the exact issue is.
