Number of feeder cables allowed to terminate on transformer secondary

[mull982]

Another transformer secondary related question:

Is there a limit to the number of feeders that is allowed to terminate on the secondary of a transformer. Lets say that each feeder is terminating in a single OCPD, or device somewhere. Is there a section in the NEC that limits this number?

For multiple feeders to they all terminate on the transformer secondary bushing, or must you have some sort of bus arrangement?

I think that would depend on whether you are protecting the transformer primary&secondary, or primary only.

If you are using primary & secondary transformer protection, I think T450.3(B) Note 2, would limit you to six.

If you are protecting the transformer primary only, I think 240.21(C) allows you to as many feeders from the secondary as you want. 240.21(C) says "....or each set of conductors feeding separate loads..."
