I want to install a fan in the hallway ceiling of my upstairs. Do you need
to run a dedicated line to the service panel or can you run a hot from a
close source like a wall plug or such?

Yes, but you mean outlet or receptacle. The plug is the thing on the
ned of a cord. It makes me think you plan on connecting a cord to the
fan and plugging it to an outlet. You're not going to do that, I
hope.
