Hi Chris,

It's typical of a switched mode power supply, which looks to have an approximate 9KHz component.

Power supplies stop abruptly when the power is switched off. This thing clearly has a spin-up and spin-down phase, both 3-4 seconds long.

It might be a large variable-speed motor. An elevator in my house draws similar patterns (it has a soft-start and soft-stop phase in order not to shake the passengers too much).

Regards,
?
