A 1000/1 A, 5 VA, UPF bar-primary measuring current transformer has 1000 secondary turns. The current transformer exhibits a ratio error of −0.1% and a phase error of 3.438 minutes when the primary current is 1000 A. At this operating condition, the rms value of the magnetization current of the current transformer (in amperes, rounded off to two decimal places) is ____
