- I don't think there is a formal term that means exactly what you describe.
- <i>Switching transients</i> generally means short term glitches that might cause noise, usually resulting from power being switched on or off. Note that this refers to the transients that cause the noise, not the noise itself.
To describe the noise you hear in a radio as a result of switching transients, you might say <i>switching noise</i> or <i>power switching noise</i>. That doesn't specify whether the noise is the radio output due to the circuit being perturbed by the transients, or due to the transients causing radio interference that is picked up by the radio receiver.- If you need to be more specific, then use more words to describe what you really mean.
