Will a 50:5 C10 CT withstand a 17 kA fault current without damage?

Will a 50:5 C10 CT withstand a 17 kA fault current without damage?

Will a 50:5 C10 CT withstand a 17 kA fault current without damage?

(OP)
As in thread 238-182418 , I like to know if a 50:5 C10 CT withstand a 17 kA fault current without damage... Scottf, I hope you can help me... in the mentioned thread, you mentioned that "The ability of a CT to physically handle (handle meaning without damage) is not related to the applied burden and is really only a function of the cross-sectional area of the windings used in the primary and secondary and the mechanical design of such"

so, how can I determine if this Ct will withstand without damage a 17 kA fault current?

Thanks in advance for all the help!!
