Exactly what it states on the label. ! Isolating transformer! 230 volt potential is only back to the transformer not between person and earth if holding 230 volt wire

So no shock. I'm used to step down as we have a couple of 230V to 110V.
No need for that if you have one of those things - small extension with switches and diodes?

rare to use isolating transformers now, use RCD instead.

I used two of them to get 460 volts at 2000VA

Correct. It improved the safety of old tools that weren't double insulated, or if you cut through the power cord.
Modern RCDs are cheaper, lighter, safer and generally better.
