I would guess the electric field is putting energy into the system.  Try without it to see the difference.

I have seen that even after 1ns of NVT simulation, when applying the electric field, the TOTAL energy of the system increases. Does anybody know why is this happening ? if the system is equilibrated isn't this energy have to be fluctuating around a constant value?
