VCmo
VCmo is a TCVN type names (Vietnam) cable designation: VCmo = VCmo: Cadivi name of a flat (oval) two-core flexible cable, class 5 copper, PVC insulation and PVC sheath (60227 IEC 53); VCmo = VCmo: flat (oval) two-core flexible cable, class 5 copper, PVC insulation and PVC sheath. 300/500 V; 0.75 to 6 mm2 (Cadivi). TCVN 6610-5:2014 (IEC 60227-5:2011, 60227 IEC 53).

PVC sheath (VCmo).
Typically targeted, as declared by makers for this kind of construction in the examples this site checked (not the class of this cable):
EcaN1XV-R, Ahlsell (seller)Cca-s3,d1,a3FG16OR16, Nexans (La Triveneta Cavi)EcaU1000 R2V, Nexans (La Triveneta Cavi)EcaN2XSY, Waskönig+Walter (10 kV datasheet)
Listed as sources, alphabetically by maker. No maker pays to appear here.
A CPR class is declared by the maker in its Declaration of Performance and printed on the sheath (EN 50575 cl 7). This decoder does not assign one. What the CPR classes mean →

VCmo as the cable designer builds it, 2x0.75 300/500 V
Flat, 6.2 × 3.9 mm (width × thickness), about 40 kg/km. Nominal values from the standard's tables for this size, computed, not a maker's data.
| Layer | Material | Thickness, mm | Over the layer, mm |
|---|---|---|---|
| Insulation | PVC | 0.60 | 2.3 |
| Filler | PVC | 2.3 | |
| Sheath | PVC | 0.80 | 3.9 |
VCmo on a drum
The smallest drum that passes every check, for 6.2 mm and about 40 kg/km as the cable designer builds it. Drums as their makers print them; lengths are estimates within a few per cent of the cable makers' own tables: whole layers, wound diameter 1.05 × OD, 50 mm freeboard under the flange rim.
| Length | Drum size (its makers) | Layers | Gross weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 500 m | KTG 4 (400 mm flange), plywood KTG drums (Europe), Bayka | 13 of 13 | 24 kg |
| 1,000 m | KTG 5 (500 mm flange), wood KTG drums (Europe), Meinhart Kabel | 19 of 19 | 48 kg |
Barrel at least 12 × OD = 75 mm for a cable of this kind (Flexible cable (class 5 or 6 conductor)): KTG table, the cable's datasheet wins. A load rating is the drum maker's own.
