The invention provides a material for an electric meter shell and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of electric materials. The material for the electric meter shell comprises the following raw materials by weight: polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene, methyl methacrylate, glass fiber, polycarbonate, polylactic acid, decabromodiphenylethane, polydimethylsiloxane, chitin, silicon nitride powder, silicon carbide powder, sodium succinate, talcum powder, barium sulfate, graphite powder, chromium carbide powder, boron nitride, alumina silicate, kaolin, polyamide resin, acetal resin, a flame retardant, a plasticizer, a coupling agent, a heat stabilizer, a light stabilizer and a lubricant. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) weighing of the above raw materials; and (2) centrifugation, melting, addition into a mold, shaping and cutting. The material and the preparation method thereof provided by the invention overcomes the problem that conventional materials for the electric meter shell need to be further improved and strengthened in mechanical strength, thermal stability and flame retardation.
