Inverters can make buzzing and screeching electrical noises and fan noise when in use. This is due to harmonic distortion and magnetic fields when the voltage is being 'stepped up'. Cooling fan noise may also be heard when the inverter is in use and sometimes after use for a minute or so to help cool the components inside.
