electric fan startup noise

I am a recent owner of my SVX. I have noticed that when the car is idling for a bit, the electric fan kicks on, which I assume is a good thing. However, there is an odd fairly loud noise that happens just before it kicks on, sort of like arcing, or something else electrical trying to switch the fan on. Maybe a relay or switch... Is this common? Does this mean that something is about to go out?
