I would think the proper way would be for an electrician to pull the hanger and meter off and temporarily affix to something else while you replace the boards. I'd think they may want to disconnect the service line that runs to the house but the rest could probably be left intact. This assumes it's already good to go and up to code. If somebody thinks you've mucked with it after the fact it would be a good idea to make it right.

I'm guessing though, I've only replaced one service and my assistant was a master electrician

Call an elec and get an estimate and advice.
