    Clicking/popping sound coming from wall when tv switched on

    Hi, looking for some advice.. the wall behind my tv makes clicking/popping noises when my tv is switched on and again when it’s switched off. It’s similar to the noise TVs make when they’re heating up/cooling. Don’t want the electrician to have a wasted visit if it’s nothing?
