solar inverter humming static noise

Noise of a solar power DC-AC inverter on a sunny day. A static hum with some kind of a rhythmic modulation. Sometimes other noises like a bird singing outside, however mostly the pure sound of the inverter. Recorded X/Y stereo with AT4041 mics into a PMD661 recorder. EQed in FabFilter, there used to be a sine beep at 15.8kHz, inaudible for many people but it would have been even more annoying for those who can still hear it.
