Maybe you mean F plug? If so, no, a wall socket wants to be
unpluggable.

Why so? Why not just 'unscrewable'?

If you have a cable TV connection, that will indeed use an F-plug/socket on
the wall, and that won't be unpluggable, so I fail to see the difference.

If it's a potential safety issue, then at least the OP's would have an
'unpluggable' plug at the TV end (unlike the case with a cable TV
connection).
