Dipole would set itself such that dipole moment vector is along
the electric field vector

A nuclear electric quadrupole moment describes the effective
shape of the ellipsoid of nuclear charge distribution. The
quadrupole moment depends upon the size and charge of the
nucleus.

Magnetic dipole is due to two poles of magnet.
Electric dipole is due to +ve and -ve charges of electric
charges.
