A small transformer will not be TO CODE.


Why not?


The SMALL transformer would have to be as big as the circuit 10 or 20
amps or whatever and I dont think you will find that setup anywhere in
the NEC.
You cannot just pick a transformer to do your current (sic) job and put
a normal outlet on the end.
Anyway the low side of the transformer will not be tied to ground etc
etc
DONT DO IT :-@ .
