Default Wall Mirror Humming sounds

I bought 3 x wall mirrors with shaver sockets for the bathrooms and they
all hum, whats causing it ?


The transformer for the shaver socket.


Isn't the power to these things usually switched by a switch that's
activated when a plug is inserted into the socket? This is a
deliberate measure to avoid them humming, and a reason why you
shouldn't leave shavers & toothbrush chargers plugged into them
permanently.
