No, they are different. SELV means the LED driver will use a safety isolating transformer with double or reinforced insulation and the output voltage shall not exceed 120Vdc.
This is good for the end product safety certified if the LED driver with SELV output.
MOOP stands for Means of Operator Protection. This category is related to electronic devices which are handled by trained operators, and do not come into direct contact with the patient. The medical device with 2 x MOOP has an isolation of 3000Vac isolation
MOPP, on the other hand, is the Means of Patient Protection; all electronic devices with direct physical contact with patients must meet stricter standards and require a double isolation between input and output.

The requirement of LPS is from IEC60950. It means the product output shall not exceed 60V/8A/100W under the normal and abnormal condition.
If the power supplies can meet LPS, the end product does not need the fire enclosure.
MEAN WELL aims to design the power supply in such way that there is sufficient margin for your system to pass the EMC requirements on system level. However we cannot guarantee that the final system can still meet the EMC requirements. The location, wiring and grounding of the switching power supply in the system may influence its EMC characteristics. In different environment or applications, the same switching power supply may have different outcomes. Our test results are based on setup shown in the EMC report.
The definition of SELV was defined in the IEC 60950 standard but it is not defined in the IEC 62368 standard. This has been replaced with the ES1 Energy sources definition.
The definition of SELV is still applicable to the 61347-2-13 standard. In this standard it is that a LED driver will use a safety isolating transformer with double or reinforced insulation and the output voltage shall not exceed 120Vdc.
In the specification MEAN WELL’s 61347-2-13 certified LED drivers are marked with the SELV symbol in the case that the SELV requirements are fulfilled:
