Voltage Drop???

I'm calculating the wire size on a 112.5KVA 480V- 120/208V transformer We're installing.

The transformer will be roughly 245' from the main.

With a POCD 175A wire size is 2/0. Do I use the standard voltage drop calculations to figure out the drop?

This is the wire size on the primary side of the transformer I'm trying to figure out. Would the voltage be 480V 3 phase and the load be 175A and the run be 245'?
 
Actually I's figure my load at 170 amps as that is the transformer at 125%. Won't really make any real difference and I think you will see it's not going to be a problem.
(I ran it the other day when you posted the earlier question)
