From the settings page for Windows Update:

Updates won't download over a metered connection (where charges may apply).

When I look to see how Microsoft defines "metered connection", I find this:
Quote:
What's a metered connection?
A metered connection is an Internet connection that has a data limit associated with it. Cellular data connections are set as metered by default. Wi-Fi network connections can be set to metered, but aren't by default. Some apps and features in Windows will behave differently on a metered connection to help reduce your data usage.
To set a Wi-Fi network connection as metered:
1.Select Start > Settings > Network & Internet.
2.Select Wi-Fi > Advanced options > Set as metered connection.
