If you have an outlet that you would like to use to power an additional outlet then that can be accomplished with a process called "daisy-chaining". This is also called “series” wiring. It's a great method that you can use to wire several outlets in a row.
You can either tap off of an existing outlet to add additional receptacles in a room or you can simply daisy chain to send power to an area of new construction such as an unfinished basement, garage, et cetera.
Please note that daisy chaining is different than wiring outlets in parallel.
To wire in daisy chain or series one connects the live and neutral wires directly to the receptacles; to wire in parallel one connects the live and natural wires to the receptacle by a pigtail.
Be sure you have the power turned off and follow your local code laws and proper safety procedures. You may also need to consult an electrician.
