Buzzing Shaver Socket
 

Hi All,

I have a shaver socket in my bathroom that has the electric toothbrush
charger plugged into it and after an hour or so it starts to buzz like mad.
So much so that we've had to plug the toothbrush into another socket
elsewhere. Any ideas what it could be and how to remedy it?

Cheers,

OK, if it was mine I might try to damp the vibration with copious
amounts of Araldite, but when giving advice to others I like to
promote best practice.

Aerosol varnish reaches the parts others don't. This has stopped
numerous transformers buzzing over the years, normally cheap and nasty
ones found in the more "cost effective" types of equipment.

Ah good, the buzz *is* just annoying (as I thought) and *not* a safety
issue I didn't know about.
