Perhaps, but in a 10-year-old child, don't depend on that protection.

It varies. Some people do, but many others, particularly when the manufacturer isn't from a Western country, won't. For instance, we frequently encounter Romanian prebuilts that appear here occasionally, using nJoy PSUs—a questionable company that provides fake certifications. You must still investigate the PSU involved; you can't just rely on appearances.
