Questions about used 100 MVA substation transformers

How many amps is a 100 MVA transformer?

A 100 MVA three-phase transformer carries 4,630 A at 12.47 kV, 4,184 A at 13.8 kV and 1,673 A at 34.5 kV at full load. Full-load current is the rating divided by √3 times the line-to-line voltage: 100,000,000 VA ÷ (1.732 × 12470 V) = 4,630 A.
