In this case you can navigate to user.properties file (lives in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation) and paste the below line in user.properties file.

jpgc.repo.address=http://jmeter-plugins.org/repo/

JMeter restart will be required to pick the property up.

It seems that you cannot securely connect to JMeter Plugins repository, the default address is https://jmeter-plugins.org/repo/

Most probably your organization or ISP has a MITM certificate somewhere to capture and decrypt your network traffic, you can check it using i.e. OpenSSL command line tool like:

openssl s_client -connect jmeter-plugins.org:443

enter image description here

Pay attention to the certificate chain, mine looks as at the image above, in your case OpenSSL will print what's wrong. If there is an extra certificate you will need to import it into your Truststore and point JMeter to use this truststore by using the following JMeter System Properties:

# Truststore properties (trusted certificates)
javax.net.ssl.trustStore=/path/to/[jsse]cacerts
javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword
javax.net.ssl.trustStoreProvider
javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType [default = KeyStore.getDefaultType()]
