Is a permit required, and if so, is the homeowner allowed to do the work?
I suspect when you go down this rabbit hole, you will find that you need a qualified electrician to comply.
Otherwise, go for it. It's not rocket science.

^ This.
Unless you're out in the woods, I bet a permit pulled by a licensed electrician is required, at least that's the way it is in Houston when I had my panel replaced. (In Houston the home owner can pull permits for construction and plumbing but not electrical)
When I did mine, the utility removed the meter, the electrician did the change over, then the utility guys came back and put the meter back on. Took a few hours total.
