Roughly, after you determine The Panel you need and correct Service wires.
Look at EVERY Wire in the panel. Identify all wires on all breakers. Use white tape to identify any neutrals and green tape for grounds that are not clearly Identified.
Watch for multi-Circuits and be sure they are on opposite Phases.
Then Take particular Notice to any conductors Not on Neutrals, Grounds or Breakers. Like Low Voltage Control wiring for AC, Etc..
All will need to be done by a Qualified Electrician, Injury or Death could result.
