Hi. Can anyone please tell me how much a 10KvA 3P transformer pulls per phase on the primary side

Sorry my typo error it is type D i realised my mistake and changed it but the loading per phase is only part of the equation the inrush of a low voltage/low voltage transformer is usually 10 to 15 times its rating and thus must be accounted for when selecting an mcb, so the recommendation still stands 50amp type c or 25amp type d.Sorry,
I think we are talking about different things here, Let me be more clear.
400v to 110v 10KvA Site Transformer for the use of hand tools and festoon lighting.
I was under the impression that it should have a D type mcb and pulled around 16A per phase at full load. I was just looking for confirmation.
Thanks
You seem to have answered your own question ICEHiya Bud,
I use 10KvA transformers all the time and always use 25D type and have never had a problem with them, as for what they pull, well it is down to the loading on the secondary side but if you are concerned for the amount of supply you have available to you I would work on 20A per phase...
