Amtech ProDesign Transformer Fault Conditions

Evening All, 

Does anyone know the calculation method Amtech ProDesign uses to calculate the Line Fault and Earth Fault levels? 

Based on the following secondary fault level conditions

Primary Fault Level: 250 MVA

Transformer Rating : 500 kVA

Impedance: 5%

The software will provide the following fault conditions 

Line Fault: 13.881 kA

Earth Fault: 13.881 kV 

Ze: 0.0166 Ohm

I believe I have an idea of how the Line Fault is calculated but I'm slightly stumped at how the Earth Fault and Ze are obtained and why it is the same as the Line Fault.
