I honestly don't recall for certain, it may. Maybe someone on here will know for sure.

We didn't go too crazy on the wiring. We did Cat5, standard phone lines and coaxial cable to most of the rooms except for the dining rooms and bathrooms.

The builder didn't soak us too bad for the wiring but it seems like each builder has things they like to jack the price up on. Our builder wanted a fortune for fancy plumbing and soundproofing. I did the extra soundproofing myself for about a tenth the price the builder wanted & we had faucets and basins changed after we moved in for about a third of what he wanted. Then we donated the (almost new) fixtures to Habitat for Humanity.
