There were quite a few comments the first time around, so I just wanted
to call attention to the electricity proposal (see links below) once
more. I fear it got lost in the hullabaloo about the man_made tag.
Also, perhaps relevant: both the power_supply
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:power_supply> and socket
<https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:socket> keys describe the same
feature. power_supply so far has occasionally been used in the manner
that electricity proposes to be. Unfortunately, the proposal for
power_supply is relatively inconsistent. I think the socket:* tag is
better thought out and also currently more used. I would be in favor of
deprecating power_supply and separating the two meanings it currently
has into electricity=* and socket:*=#.

Hello all,
after the comments on the confusing nature of the word 'source' in my
original proposal of 'electricity:source', I have now changed the
name to 'electricity:origin' as suggested on the discussion page.
Furthermore, I would like to revive and extend the proposal of the
key 'electricity' as this previously conflicted with parts of the
electricity:source proposal and was not consistent.
Both proposal pages:
[1] https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/electricity
[2]
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/w/index.php?title=Proposed_features/electricity:origin
The idea now is to allow for the tagging of buildings or amenities
that have electricity. The rationale is described in more detail at
[1]. Tags such as access, fee, schedule and origin can then narrow
down the availability to the public and the question of financial or
direct origin of the electricity.
This is distinct from the drafted tag power_supply as it is used to
describe the type of sockets used at a specific outlet. The values
for that tag are still currently under discussion.
I would also not tag this as a subset of power=* as this maps the
facilities and features that relate to the generation and
distribution of electrical power and should not be used to map the
consumers of electricity.
I am eager to hear the feedback to the revised proposals!
Best regards,
Lukas
