It may depend on the actual builder of the home but I believe most or all should be "plumbed" for electric from the breaker panel to the laundry room/area. Mine already had a breaker installed and was wired all the way to behind the dryer. All I had to do was wire the outlet in, turn the breaker on and it was hot and ready to go to plug in the dryer. Some may just be wired between the two but not have the breaker in the panel already. An electrician is always recommended but how-to's for wiring in a breaker and/or the plug can easily be found online if you trust yourself enough to DIY it. I had done it before and had no problem doing it myself. But if you have any doubts, it's better to get a professional to do it as opposed to burning something down.
