Charges are placed on the vertices of a square as shown Let $\vec E$ be the electric field and $V$ the potential at the centre. If the charges on $A$ and $B$ are interchanged with those on $D$ and $C$ respectively, then

As shown in the figure, the resultant electric fields before and after interchanging the charges will have the same magnitude, but opposite directions.

Also, the potential will be same in both cases as it is a scalar quantity.
