I have a notebook with Debian testing (Stretch) that gets slow
whenever the power cord is plugged in. I can't figure out the exact
reason for that, but it seems that setting the CPU governor to
performance helps a lot.

But calling cpufreq-selector is hard for regular users. I wish to make
a script that is called upon power plug events, with root privileges.

I read documentation from acpi and pm-powersave, and from my
understanding, scripts in /etc/pm/power.d/ should be called every time
the power plug status changes with parameters "true" or "false". So I
created a script there, but it seems to be called only at boot time,
and not every time the power plug status changes.

Can anybody help?
