Foundation structure of an offshore structure with a transmission cable and a protection element

A foundation structure of a wind turbine, with a floating foundation, comprising at least one floating body for floating on the surface of the sea, at least one anchor for anchoring the at least one floating body to the seafloor and at least one holding element for holding the at least one floating body to the at least one anchor, the at least one holding element extending from the at least one anchor to the at least one floating body,

• wherein at least one transmission cable extends from the at least one anchor along the at least one holding element to the at least one floating body and/or back,
• wherein the transmission cable is guided in sections through at least one protection element provided between the holding element and the at least one anchor and/or the at least one floating body,
• wherein the at least one protection element is fixedly connected to the at least one holding element and/or to the at least one floating body or to the at least one anchor,
• wherein at least one end of the protection element is inserted into the holding element and/or the floating body or anchor, and
• wherein the at least one protection element is formed at least in sections, in particular at least substantially completely, by a tube formed in the manner of a coil spring and in that the at least one transmission cable is guided through the protection element.
