A measurement of 200 ohms is obtained between the primary and secondary of a double wound transformer is it safe to use?

When a resistance measurement is taken from both primary leads tied together to both secondary leads also tied together in a transformer, and the resistance obtained is 200 Ohms -- not safe in my book.

What is difference betweena step up transformer and step down transformer?
The difference between the two transformers is the coil ratios between the primary and secondary windings. A transformer that increases voltage from primary to secondary has more secondary winding turns than primary winding turns and is called a step-up transformer. Conversely, a transformer with fewer secondary windings does just the opposite and is called a step-down transformer.
What is the different between et up and set down transformer?
the difference between a step up transformer and a step down transformer is that, in a tsep up transformer, the voltage secondary is greater than the primary side but in a step down transformer, the voltage secondary is lesser than the primary side
Difference between step up and step down transformers?
Actually an isolation transformer may be physically the same as a Step up/Step Down transformer. The main difference is in the way they are used. Another difference is that in a normal transformer there will be capacitance between the 2 windings, between the windings and core, between the core and shell, etc. These capacitances bring in high frequency noise from outside, which will be transmitted in the secondary circuit. So [in an isolation transformer] wires are connected between each component, (not direct contact, but with insulation present). This permits a leakage current and eliminates unnecessary capacitance. I could make a start to answer this question. Isolation transformer: is a transformer with two separate windings, the primary and the secondary. There is an electrical isolation between the primary and the secondary. Nearly any type of transformer with two non-connected windings could be considered an "isolation" transformer, in that it electrically isolates the primary voltage from the secondary voltage. There are also transformers with one winding (called auto-transformers) and connections for input and output. If the input is low voltage and the output a higher, then you can say it is a STEP-UP transformer. If the input is high and the output is low, then you can say it is a STEP-DOWN. This type of transformer can not by used where safety is a large factor.
What type of voltage is passed trough a transformer?
Voltage doesn't 'pass through' anything! Voltage is another word for 'potential difference', and is measured between two points in a circuit. For a transformer to work, it's necessary to apply an a.c. voltage across the transformer's primary terminals.
How do you improve the flux linkage between the primary and secondary windings in a transformer?
by using an iron core

What is the difference between CT and PT?
A ct is a step up transformer where as a pt is a step down transformer because both are used for measurement and protection purpose . current is stepped down if the secondary windings are more so we can obviously say thar ct is step up transformer
What is the voltage phase shift between primary and secondary line voltages in star-delta transformer connection?
The voltage phase shift between primary and secondary connections in a transformer is 180 electrical degrees.
What is resistance between primary and secondary winding of transformer?
The primary and secondary windings of a mutual transformer are electrically isolated, and should have 'infinite' resistance between them when measured appropriately (which depends on voltage ratings of the windings).
What is the difference between an isolation transformer and distribution transformer?
in isolation transformer earthing is not provide on secondary side but in ordinary transformer neutral of secondary side is earthedAnswerAn isolation transformer is a 1:1 ratio transformer; its function is to electrically isolate the secondary side from the primary side without changing the voltage. An example of an isolation transformer is the one used in a shaver socket.A distribution transformer is a step-down transformer, used within the electricity network's distribution system. An example of distribution transformer is a pole-mounted transformer, supplying low voltage to residences.(Of course, all mutual transformers provide electrical isolation between primary and secondary.)
What is the difference between control transformer and Potential transformer?
Control transformer used only for control supply 110,220, 24,12V AC. But Potential transformer used voltage measurement purpose.

What are taps for in a transformer?
The ratio of windings between a primary and secondary in a transformer govern the output voltage. Multiple taps are connections to various points in the coil effectively changing the winding ratios to get multiple voltages from the same transformer. Taps can be on the primary, secondary or both to provide a more versatile transformer.
How do you improve the flux linkage between the primary and secondary windings in a transformer?
by using an iron core
Why phase displacement is maintained between primary and secondary windings of the transformer?
To eliminate certain harmonics.
