Public, restricted, or private
Charging stations may be available to the general public, restricted to a certain audience and time-frame, or completely private.
- Public: Public chargers are available to the general public. For example, chargers at a shopping center or a public parking lot or garage.
- Restricted: Restricted chargers are available to the public, but with limitations. For example, a user may charge a restaurant's charging station, but only while dining. Another example would be a charger for hotel guests.
- Private: Most private chargers will be those at homes, apartments, and workplaces. Private chargers are only available to the homeowner, business's employees and their guests. Additionally, home chargers that are shared via online "plug sharing" networks, but are not available to the public should also be considered private.

As of 5 February 2023[update] the production WME does not support marking a charging station as public, restricted, or private. At this time, only add public charging stations. Any pending PURs for restricted or private locations should be left open until such time that the features are completed and available in the production WME. |
