    Amps per phase for 3 phase?

    Further to above. To say your supply is rated at 12Kw is meaningless. The limitation on any supply is the current that can be drawn (or the voltage x that current.) NOT KW but KVA. So if you had a heating load, KVA is the same as KW. But if you have a motor you will only be able to draw less...

    Amps per phase for 3 phase?

    Well the first thing is that Volts X Amps does not give watts in alternating current Watts = volts X amps x cos phi (phi is a greek letter) and = cosine of phase angle between volts and current The amps and volts are not synchronised in AC and therefore cannot be simply multiplied...
