As shown in the figure, there is a network composed of two sets of parallel

charged wires on the x − y plane, and there are infinite number of these
two sets of charged wires, and the linear charge density of the charged wires
is −λ. The included angle between two sets of parallel charged wires is
θ, and the distance between adjacent parallel charged wires is d. Take the
center of a certain grid as the origin to establish a space Cartesian coordinate
system
