Very Important Information!

01/23/2026

With the upcoming snowstorm, a few electrical precautions go a long way:

1. Inspect extension cords for damage before using them
2. Never run heaters on extension cords
3. If your lights flicker or breakers trip repeatedly, don’t ignore it
4. Keep electrical panels accessible in case of emergency
5. If you lose power, shut off sensitive electronics to prevent surge damage when power returns

Lunar Electric is reminding everyone: safety first, comfort second.

Honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Today we pause to honor a leader whose vision lit the path toward justice, unity, and opportunity. Dr. King reminded us that “Only light can drive out darkness.”

As electrical contractors, we bring light and power to the places where our communities live and work — but Dr. King’s message reminds us that the brightest work we do is how we treat people, uplift others, and build with integrity.

Wishing everyone a meaningful Martin Luther King Jr. Day.

Inspecting electrical connections to make sure they are properly torqued and taking the time to correctly torque connections may seem unnecessary and time-consuming, however this process will ensure the safety and efficiency of the equipment.

Connections should already be properly tightened, but you should always inspect them to ensure they are properly torqued as they may have become loose. For electrical panels, the torque specifications can be located on the cover of the panel as well as for most breakers. You will need torque tools specifically, a torque wrench and a torque screwdriver. Even if you are a skilled technician, properly estimating torque will be difficult without the proper tools. You will need to use the pliers to hold lugs in place while applying the correct torque.

Studies show that around three-quarters of connections completed without the use of a torque tools, fail to meet the recommended torque value for the connection.

Loose connections cause fires
Remember, loose connections may operate satisfactorily for a time, but eventually they will experience thermal runaway that will result in extremely high temperatures causing equipment damage and, in some cases, structural fires. Every year in our industry there are several instances of failures and fires that were confirmed to be caused by loose connections.
