socket ??

I assume you have a problem with plugging in the power cord. I would take it to a repair shop since this type replacement requires disassembly of the laptop and disoldering the power socket from the motherboard.

It's not really a DIY (do it yourself) project. If you must try it - Ebay might be the best source of parts.

Good Luck
