Humming noise/coil whine normal on a Victron Smart Shunt?

I can hear a very faint humming noise like a coil whine coming from my smart shunt. Is this normal?

Hey from New Zealand, I have installed dozens of smart shunts and have never heard any noise. Be interested to hear what you find..

I just installed the shunt in my teardrop and I also hear a faint noise that seems to undulate in synchronicity with the led light.

yes, the buzzing noise syncs (high & low) with the blinking blue LED in my case too
