A new method is described to express the Madelung parameter of a structure with a non-cubic Bravais lattice as a function of a lattice parameter by means of a power series expansion. The method is derived for the case of a cubic lattice which is tetragonally distorted. The generalization to other crystal structures is shown. For illustration the method is applied to the rutile and cadmium iodide structures.
