One of my an under cabinet light broken. I want to replace it new under cabinet light. The old socket photo is attached. Is there any power plug converter that I can use so I can use USA plug type A?

Thanks.

No, but you just replace the power cord and use the one that comes with your new light.

An AC power cord should not be run covered or inside a wall.
