After extensive conversations with the Civil Protection Department of Mexico, a metal fence made of galvanized wire installed in the Museum was electrified with 7000 volts.

As physical contact with one of the wires would cause electrocution, before entering the Museum, the visitor was advised about the use of high voltage and the physical damages that this could cause.
