%C A176500 This sequence provides a strict upper bound of the set of equivalent resistances formed by any conceivable network (series/parallel or bridge, or non-planar) of n equal resistors. Consequently it provides an strict upper bound of the sequences: A048211, A153588, A174283, A174284, A174285 and A174286. A176502 provides a better strict upper bound but is harder to compute.

%C A176500 Farey(n) = A005728(n). - _Franklin T. Adams-Watters_, May 12 2010
%C A176500 The claim that this sequence is a strict upper bound for the number of representable resistance values of any conceivable network is incorrect for networks with more than 11 resistors, in which non-planar configurations can also occur. Whether the sequence provides at least a valid upper bound for planar networks with generalized bridge circuits (A337516) is difficult to decide on the basis of the insufficient number of terms in A174283 and A337516. See the linked illustrations of the respective quotients. - _Hugo Pfoertner_, Jan 24 2021
