Are you asking about a transformer turn to turn fault? Or if a transformer is shorted, does this turn into a fault? Please clarify the question.

How transformer get burn?
Current overload from whatever circuit draws current from the transformer? Proper fusing of its supply might protect a transformer from this cause. Or it could have developed a shorted turn fault because the insulation on a winding got old and perished? Or maybe the transformer got damaged if the appliance it is mounted in was dropped?
What is inter-turn fault in three phase motor?
An 'inter-turn' fault occurs when adjacent turns of the same winding are short circuited (due, for example, to insulation breakdown). This affects the turns ratio of the transformer. An 'inter-winding' fault occurs when there is a short circuit between adjacent windings (coils) due to insulation breakdown, and can lead to a catastrophic failure of the transformer.
Can you turn a multi-tap ballast into a step down transformer?
A mulit tap ballast is in fact an auto transformer.
What is the formula for gain in a power amplifier that has a step down transformer?
A: there is no formula the gain of the amp is just reduced by the transformer turn ratio minus efficiency or loss. the transformer is for isolation and impedance matching
If the fuse of the secondary side of the transformer blows what are the test to be conducted to check if the transformer is defective or not?
1st make sure the power is turned offDisconnect one lead on primary side of transformer and using an ohm meter check for continuity. You will probably get a low ohm reading if you get no reading the windings are broken and transformer is no good2nd test using ohm meter again check for winding to ground you should get no reading. If you get a ohm value the transformer is shorted to groundRepeat these tests on secondary sideWith power on and fuse removed with a voltage meter check for power on secondary sideIf it is okay turn off power and install fuseIf fuse blows again check for shorts in circuitRemember to be careful when power is turned on

What is reason of the distribution transformer failure?
There can be numerous reasons for a fault occurring in a distribution transformer. One of the most common is an inter-turn winding fault, in which the insulation between adjacent turns of the same winding fail causing part of the winding to become short-circuited, thus changing the transformer's turns ratio. A far-more severe fault occurs when there is an insulation breakdown between the two windings or between one or other of the windings and the earthed (grounded) metal tank within which the windings are housed. This type of fault usually causes the overcurrent protection devices (fuses) to operate to minimise the damage to the transformer although, in rare cases, a catastrophic failure might result in the transformer exploding.
Why Head light doesn't turn off?
Switch is shorted out.
What type of connection will only turn on when shorted across positive and negative shortly then turn immediately off?
A fuse?
How do i fix a blinker in a 91 accord that won't turn off?
sounds like a turn signal switch is shorted
How do you measure transformer turn ratio by turn ratio set?
Read the manual
What are facts about a Transformer turn ratio?
Typically a transformer is designed for a specific turn ratio x:y the fact is that is only true if the power is held as designed for that ratio
Why does a 1997 international 4700 truck blows fuses when using left signal?
The wiring in the left turn signal circuit shorted out. Or it can be the socket that the left turn signal light screws into is shorted out. Look for bare wires or corrosion.
What is bucholz protection?
A Bucholz relay is also known as a sudden pressure relay. In high voltage transformers, if a turn to turn fault develops, this will result in a rapid rise in pressure inside the transformer tank due to localized heating. A Bucholz relay is designed to sense this rapid change in pressure, and can be used to alarm or trip the transformer off line. These are also used on large reactors. Since these are a mechanical device, they can be sensitive to vibrations, so they may not be enabled for tripping in locations very near train tracks or fault lines.

A mulit tap ballast is in fact an auto transformer.
Is the driver at fault if his car is struck by an oncoming vehicle while making a U-turn?
Yes This Sounds as To Be True. You Are At Fault For Making An Ilegal Turn. Which Caused An Accident. So It Is The Fault Of The One That Made The U Turn.
