We describe the operation of an Extensive Air Shower Array located at the campus of the FCFM‐BUAP. The array consists of 8 liquid scintillation detectors with a surface of 1 m2 each and a detector spacing of 20 m in a square grid. The array was designed to measure the energy and arrival direction of primary particles that generate extensive air showers (EAS) in the region of 1013 eV – 1016 eV. The angular distribution measured with this array, Cos8(Θ)×Sin(Θ), agrees very well with the literature. We also present the measured energies of a number of vertical showers in the range of 5×1012 eV to 5×1013 eV.
