How long's a piece of string? It obviously depends on how big the transformer is!
Depends on size of transformer and type (dry,mineral oil, silicone) as well as ground slope and building construction.
In the old days of Cathode Ray Tubes, the beam is controlled by a circular transformer around the yoke or long part of the CRT.
William Stanley designed the first commercial transformer for Westinghouse in 1886.

It is used to step up the voltage in order to transmit it a long distance where it goes into a stepdown transformer and then into your home .
The transformer enclosure should isolate the transformer sufficiently from the environment. I believe OSHA specifies 2 feet, 1 inch as the minimum appoach distance to 13.8kV, so I suppose a transformer could be put this close to a building and still be safe. My guess is there are codes in place in your local area that prevent this and specify some greater distance.

The type of transformer that can convert from microvolts to volts is a step-up transformer. This transformer increases the voltage level from the input side (microvolts) to the output side (volts) using electromagnetic induction. Step-up transformers are commonly used in power distribution systems to increase voltage for long-distance transmission.

A buck/boost transformer is used to lower (buck) or raise (boost) the utility supplied voltage to the non-standard voltage required by some equipment, can also be used to raise the voltage that has dropped from traveling too long of a distance.

You can use multiple appliances as long as long as you don't draw more current than the transformer can supply.
