1. A downwind type wind turbine, comprising: a rotor,a nacelle to support the rotor and store therein a generator,a support post to support the nacelle,a main transformer arranged between the generator and an electric power system, andan auxiliary transformer arranged between the generator and an auxiliary machinery,wherein the main transformer and the auxiliary transformer are stored at the same level in the nacelle or in the support post,wherein the rotor includes blades disposed downwind relative to the nacelle and the support post when the downwind type wind turbine generates electricity, andwherein power from the generator is conveyable to the main and auxiliary transformers. 2. A downwind type wind turbine according to claim 1, wherein the auxiliary transformer is connected to a generator side of the main transformer. 3. A downwind type wind turbine according to claim 1, wherein at least one of the main transformer and the auxiliary transformer is disposed at bottom of the support post. 4. A downwind type wind turbine according to claim 1, wherein at least one of the main transformer and the auxiliary transformer is an amorphous transformer. 5. A downwind type wind turbine according to claim 1, wherein the auxiliary transformer is stored in the nacelle or in the support post. 6. A downwind type wind turbine according to claim 5, wherein in the nacelle and the support post, an optical fiber cable is used for measured value and control signal transmission, and a magnetic shield is disposed around an electrical signal or current flow location. 7. A method of operating a downwind type wind turbine, including a main transformer stored in a support post or in a nacelle, comprising: disposing blades of a rotor downwind relative to the support post and the nacelle when the turbine generates electricity, as well as between a generator stored in the nacelle, an electric power system, a main transformer arranged between the generator and the electric power system, and an auxiliary transformer arranged between the generator and an auxiliary machinery and stored at the same level in the support post or the nacelle as the main transformer,controlling the downwind type wind turbine with the auxiliary machinery, which is connected to the generator,operating the auxiliary machinery by electric power generated by the generator so as to control the downwind type wind turbine, andconveying power from the generator to the main transformer, the auxiliary transformer, or both the main transformer and the auxiliary transformer. 8. A method of operating a downwind type wind turbine according to claim 7, wherein, during generation of electricity by the downwind type wind turbine, electric power generated by the generator is transformed by the auxiliary transformer to operate the auxiliary machinery so as to control the downwind type wind turbine. 9. A method of operating a downwind type wind turbine according to claim 7, wherein, during generation of electricity by the downwind type wind turbine, electric power generated by the generator is transformed by the auxiliary transformer in the support post or in the nacelle to operate the auxiliary machinery so as to control the downwind type wind turbine. 10. A downwind type wind turbine according to claim 7, wherein the downwind type wind turbine stops generation of electricity in an unusual state, and when the unusual state is solved thereafter, the auxiliary machinery is operated by electric power supplied from a system side through the main transformer so as to control the downwind type wind turbine. 11. A method of operating a downwind type wind turbine according to claim 7, wherein at a time of power failure of the generator and the electric power system, the rotor is positioned downwind without performing a yaw control by the auxiliary machinery.
