I would expect the TOD clocks to be as accurate as the clock signal they get. But the chips being NMOS and able to work in the MHz range, I would expect them to consider even very short spikes and some line noise a valid signal and use it to increment the internal counter.

So unless the circuit that converts the 9V AC into a 50 Hz TTL-signal contains some kind of filter, the TOD clocks cannot be accurate.
