Potential due to an Electric Dipole

Potential at a point due to a dipole along the axis

The potential at point P is the algebraic sum of the potentials due to -q and +q charges. Hence

Potential at a point due to a dipole along the axis

Potential at point P due to the dipole along the equatorial line will be zero as P is equidistant from the two charges.
