A general formalism is developed to obtain series expansions of the average number of physical clusters of particles in the framework of Mayer's theory. The special case of lattice systems is investigated in more detail and some preliminary results are given on the relation between percolation (namely the formation of an infinite cluster) and condensation in fluid systems in the lowest approximation (summation of chain diagrams).
