When I "built" my house in 2001, the engineer asked me if I wanted a dedicated plug but I was not sure on which side of the garage I was going to park the cart so I used the GFI plug that came with the house. He did not seem to see an problem with that.
About 6 months after I moved in, I had some electric work done and I had them put in a dedicated plug on the side I decided to park the cart.
BTW: the problem with using the GFI plug is that if it resets for any reason, your cart will not charge. But I am sure we all know this. However, this happened to my neighbor and they asked me to come over and look at the problem. While there I checked out the plug and found it was dead I reset the GFI switch and all was better. Not sure why it blew but I have had my GFI plugs in the garage reset a few times. I blame it on the lightening storms.
