Are aftermarket power cords required to be UL / CE approved?


Lots of folks are making and selling aftermarket power cords. In the US are these cords required to be UL or CE approved?

 Wondering about the ramifications of using unapproved cords. Am I liable if someone gets shocked, could my home owners policy deny a claim if they determine a non approved cord started a fire?

I ride bicycles, a lot. I’ve tumble over four time over the past twenty years, each time I bonked my head on the pavement; fortunately I was wearing a helmet each time I wiped out. Wearing a helmet can save you from a serious concussion or worse.
