Usually the electric receptacle on a refrigerator is on the back of it. But with my experience it will be a lot easier if you just call a repair man to come and fix it for you.

You shouldn't try to replace it yourself - the best thing to do is to call somebody that deals with refrigerators. The electricity can kill you.
