As i know that transformer windings are end tapped i.e. tap changing facilities are provided at the end of winding. Then how come center tapped transformer works.

Works for what? The voltage is proportional to the number of turns. A centre-tapped transformer just has two windings which are connected together in series.

 

Transformer windings are not "end tapped", they are connected to at the ends.
A transformer winding is a linear system, meaning that voltage is induced along every segment of a secondary winding. This means that a connection at any point will have some voltage.
The TS needs to study transformers and related magnetics some more!

 

A transformer winding that is centre tapped provide a ± phase shift of 90° on each end WRT the centre tap,
Often used for full wave rectification using 2 diodes,
This is also the method of used to supply domestic power in NA.

Correction: should read 180° WRT the CT

The TS's reference refers to transformers that are tapped 0-220-230-240 as being "end-tapped" - no, I've not heard the term before, they were just "tapped".

90° phase shift from a transformer! You'd need Scott-T to do that.

Should have each read 180° WRT the CT !

 

For a seriously "multi tapped transformer, look at a VARIAC, or a POWERSTAT transformer.. Continues tapping that is adjustable.
