Alliance TF200 – 200 Watt Landscape Lighting Transformer
The Alliance TF200 is a professional-grade 200-watt low-voltage transformer built to power landscape lighting systems for patios, walkways, retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, and garden features. It's the control center of any 12-volt LED lighting installation — converting standard 120V household current to safe 12V output that powers path lights, step lights, wall wash fixtures, and accent spotlights across your hardscape project.
Alliance is a contractor-preferred brand known for reliability, clean engineering, and features that make installation and service straightforward. The TF200 combines a durable stainless steel cabinet, toroidal transformer core (quieter and more efficient than standard laminated cores), and built-in photocell with digital timer — so the system turns on at dusk and off at your scheduled time without additional controllers or smart-home add-ons.
SPECIFICATIONS
Specifications
- Wattage: 200 watts
- Output: 12 volt (single tap)
- Maximum amperage: 1.5 amps

- Cabinet: Stainless steel (weather-resistant, outdoor rated)
- Controls: Built-in photocell + digital timer
- Power cord: 5' heavy-gauge with grounded plug
- Compliance: DOE and CEC compliant, ETL listed
- Installation: Wall-mount near GFCI outlet; connect low-voltage wire runs to terminal block
- Suitable for: Residential and light commercial landscape lighting systems
Sizing Guide
- The 200W capacity powers approximately 20–30 LED path/step lights (typical LED fixtures draw 4–8 watts each)
- Never load a transformer beyond 80% capacity for longevity — plan for ~160W actual fixture load max
- For larger systems or longer wire runs, consider stepping up to a higher-wattage model or splitting into multiple transformer zones
HOW TO USE
Installation Tips
- Mount within 5' of a weatherproof GFCI outlet, off the ground and out of irrigation spray
- Use 12-gauge or 10-gauge direct-burial landscape wire for runs over 50'
- Split fixtures across multiple wire runs (hub method) rather than daisy-chaining long distances — this prevents voltage drop at the far end
- Program timer for 4–6 hours after dusk for typical residential use
