A transformer can't provide too much current. That doesn't even make sense. A device can draw too much current (depending on the supplied voltage and the resistance of the device), which is where the fire hazard comes in. That is why you have circuit breakers. If a device is drawing too much current, the transformer will heat up and probably fry one of the windings within it before it starts a fire. I did this with an old one I didn't need anymore using it as an electrolysis machine.
