    K= transformer ratio
    K=V2/V1
    Where V2 is secondary side voltage
    V1 is Primary side voltage
    Now K= 400/5KV
    k= 400/5000= 12.5
    Again k= I1/I2
    I1 is primary current
    And I2 is secondary current
    12.5= 10A/I2
    I2 = 12.5*10= 125A

    K= transformation ratio.
    K= 400/5*10^3
    =.08
    Given, I1= 10A
    So, I2= I1/k
    = 10 /.08
    =125A
