The invention discloses a portable socket for portable installation, comprising a plug, a transparent cover, a hoisting mechanical system, a socket shell and a movable outlet, wherein the socket shelland the transparent cover are nested with each other, the plug is installed inside the transparent cover, and the movable outlet is provided at the end of the socket shell opposite to the transparentcover. The portable socket is provided with a retraction mechanism, a push structure and a start linkage structure. By pressing an inverted T fixing rod to start the start linkage structure, on the one hand, a blocking drive structure is urged to drive, a blocking structure is rotated, the retraction mechanism is allowed to rotate smoothly, and the length of a wire of the plug is adjusted; and onthe other hand, the push structure is also driven to push the socket out from the movable outlet, when the portable socket is not used, the transparent cover covers the plug, and the socket is retracted and placed in the socket shell to avoid short circuit on next use caused by accumulation of dust due to long-term non-use.
