Thank you David.
I believe virial is typically calculated in terms of pairwise
interparticle coordinates and forces (r_{ij} and f_{ij}). If that is
the case in gromacs, how is external force incorporated into
interparticle forces?
this is not how it's done in gromacs, see appendix of the manual. quite
the opposite it is computed as sum_i f_i r_i
therefore the electric field is taken into account.

How is the external force included in virial?

yes they are, but they should cancel for a neutral system.
