Questions about used 60 MVA substation transformers

How many amps is a 60 MVA transformer?

A 60 MVA three-phase transformer carries 8,327 A at 4.16 kV, 2,778 A at 12.47 kV and 2,510 A at 13.8 kV at full load. Full-load current is the rating divided by √3 times the line-to-line voltage: 60,000,000 VA ÷ (1.732 × 4160 V) = 8,327 A.
