Bike components are generally softer or thinner than many other types of machines making the proper application of torque even more important both for rider safety and to avoid damage to your expensive eBike.
This article from Park Tools goes in depth on what Torque is and why you should care and also gives a set of general guidelines for how much torque to use. Of course if your manufacturer gives you a torque specification you should use that instead.

Remember, a torque wrench should ONLY be used for tightening nuts/bolts. A regular wrench/socket handle should be used for removing nuts/bolts.
