SPOOL AND HANDLE FOR CABLE AND WIRE

A cable carrying assembly includes a spool made from a first flange region, drum portion and a second flange region where each of the first flange region, drum portion and a second flange region are integrally molded as a single polymer unit. The drum portion is molded as a hollow drum for supporting a cable. The first flange region includes at least two openings and a handle receiving region and the handle has a grip portion, two stems each with a latch knob. The stems and knobs of the handle are inserted into the at least two openings on the first flange region of the drum and lock into place via the knobs, such that the grip portion of the handle is arrangable in a first open position with the grip portion substantially perpendicular to the first flange regions and a second closed position with the grip portion folded down about the articulated joints, into the handle receiving region of the first flange region.
