This can be puzzling. For personal use you can build your own power cord using UL and or CSA cord and connectors. Yes, the components are UL Listed but not the assembly.
IF you are making power cords for sale then technically, in some states, it might say they must be assembled by a licensed electrician or a licensed electrical maintenance person if they will not be safety tested and Listed by a recognized third party. In commercial and industrial facilities electricians and or maintenance personnel make up power cords all the time.
What may come into play is a liability issue in the case of a law suite being filed on the 'non qualified'seller, of the power cord's assembled.
Good example is the power cord below in the link. In some states if it was proven the cord was the cause of an electrical fire where personal injury or loss of life resulted, the maker/seller of the cord could find himself named in a lawsuit.
