Hi Glacier-National,
Thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities. From our understanding, your Mac is set to stay on when connected to power for two hours and is going to sleep before your Time Machine backup completes. Do we have that right? You can go to the Apple Menu () > System Preferences to adjust the setting to turn off the display so that it stays on while the backup completes.

Take care!
