    Hi wire question

    I'm going to be getting a spool of wire it's 6-6-6 or 6-6-8 I think one of those anyway the guy said it's 154lbs with the spool still on it. I was wondering when I get it how to figure how many feet of it i have can't exactly measure it haha too long. He said the spool said 500ft but I don't think that's right. The 6awg wires have 7 solid cores it's xhhw grey outer jacket then the grounds then plastic then the two 6awg wires I know how to get percentage recovery rate but how do I know how many feet. I have?
