The thesis addresses the fundamentals of the electric power system, with a particular focus on transmission lines. It concentrates on the structural components of a transmission tower, namely its construction and foundations. The thesis presents prefabricated foundations for transmission towers, which are a novelty in Slovenia but already a common practice in Poland. In accordance with the DV 2x110 kV Hudo - Kočevje project, soil bearing capacity calculations for such foundations were carried out as part of the thesis. The process of installing prefabricated foundations is described, along with key warnings about aspects requiring special attention, as these foundations demand exceptional precision during installation. A crucial role in the installation process is played by continuous geodetic monitoring and the presence of a geotechnical specialist.
