Questions about used 80 MVA substation transformers

How many amps is a 80 MVA transformer?

A 80 MVA three-phase transformer carries 3,704 A at 12.47 kV, 3,347 A at 13.8 kV and 1,339 A at 34.5 kV at full load. Full-load current is the rating divided by √3 times the line-to-line voltage: 80,000,000 VA ÷ (1.732 × 12470 V) = 3,704 A.
