I have a distribution panel that is rated at 208/120V, 3PH, 4W and need to provide a new 75KVA transformer to feed a new 480/277, 3PH, 4W panelboard. Since I'm coming off a 208/120V distribution panel and increasing the voltage to 480/277V am I sizing the primary and secondary overcurrent protection correctly?
Primary overcurrent protection - 75KVA/360 (208x1.732)= 208 x 1.25 = 260A
Use a 3P300A breaker for the primary protection
Secondary overcurrent protection - 75KVA/831 (480x1.732) = 90 x 1.25 = 11.5A. Use a 3P125A breaker for the secondary protection
Primary overcurrent protection - 75KVA/360 (208x1.732)= 208 x 1.25 = 260A
