Questions about used 24 MVA substation transformers

How many amps is a 24 MVA transformer?

A 24 MVA three-phase transformer carries 3,331 A at 4.16 kV, 1,111 A at 12.47 kV and 1,004 A at 13.8 kV at full load. Full-load current is the rating divided by √3 times the line-to-line voltage: 24,000,000 VA ÷ (1.732 × 4160 V) = 3,331 A.
