After replacing the outlet, the smell of fused wires remains

Marina asks:

Good evening! This morning, smoke came from the outlet and it melted a little. In the evening, a new outlet was installed. And in the new outlet there is the same smell of melted wires. Please tell me, is this normal?

The answer to the question:

Hello! If the insulation of the wires is slightly melted, then the smell may still stand for some time. The electrician who changed the outlet restored the insulation at least? And the new outlet does not spark in work, does it get warm?
