Abstract: A wind energy plant is provided with a foundation base and a tower which is placed on the foundation base. The foundation base has a foundation plate below ground level and a foundation plinth on the foundation plate above ground level. On the foundation plinth a tension cord connector is provided with a plurality of bores for receiving tension cords. The tension cords are tensioned on an underneath side of the connector by means of a tension cord head. The foundation plate and the foundation plinth are cast in one piece from site-mixed concrete.

Abstract: There is provided a wind power installation comprising a pylon which has a plurality of pylon segments. Some of the pylon segments are made up from a plurality of pylon segment parts. The pylon segment parts are fixed together by way of screw connections. The wind power installation further has at least one guide cable extending at least partially along the length of the pylon. The wind power installation also has a working platform which can be fixed to the guide cable for guidance and which can be moved upwardly and downwardly by way of a travel cable. In that way the screw connections of adjacent pylon segment parts can be checked.
