Here, the necessary and sufficient conditions for realisability of a general class of impedance functions by passive electrical networks composed of two fractional element (fractional capacitor or fractional inductor) and some resistors are found. Also, a systematic procedure is proposed to obtain such passive electrical networks in the realisable cases. Moreover, by establishing a connection with the previously reported researches on the subject of inerter‐based passive mechanical control, further results on the maximum number of the resistors required for passive realisation are obtained. Furthermore, a numerical example is presented to show the usefulness of the paper achievements in passive realisation of impedance functions.
