The model I have seen is that there's a cost for charging as well as parking after charging has completed. You get 20 minutes after charging has ended for free but there will be a blocking fee afterwards as long as the cable is still connected to the car and will be charged as part of the charging fee. If someone charges their car and then disconnects the cable and blocks the spot, they will be towed as the spot has a notice that it's only for charging devices.I have seen those attached to light posts here in Germany but they all are in front of public area, not private houses so I guess it's only for charging, not parking.
In another point, if it's in front of a private property and the owner plan to occupy it for themselves, it would not make sense to install charger there as even when the owner is not charging, no one else can use.
