Tradition
The beginnings of Iskra go back to 1946 when on March 8 a government order founded the Iskra Company for activities in the field of electrotechnics and mechanics.
The most important historic milestone in the operations of Iskra Sistemi, d. d., jointstock company was in 1964, when the »Biro za avtomatizacijo železnic« (BAŽ), the Division for Automation, was founded as part of Iskra. It was transformed several times, and for years it represented the core of the company's employment base.

Since its inception, the company has undergone many organizational and other changes brought about by the social and political environment of the former Yugoslavia and finally by Slovenia's independence.

Because of the recent mergers, when Iskra Sistemi, d .d. first merged with Iskra SYSEN d. d., and then with Iskra Transmission, d. d. Ljubljana into an new public limited company, Iskra Sistemi, d. d., two other milestones of importance for Iskra Sistemi need to be mentioned: the year 1949, when the production of the basic elements of power automation – protective relays – started in TELA, the electric appliances factory, and 1952 when the Institute of Electronic Communications was founded.
