An ultraviolet photometric system based on observations obtained from the ultraviolet Sky Survey Telescope in the TD1 satellite is described. The system considered here consists of ultraviolet magnitudes at λ1 = 2740A, λ2 = 2190A and λ3 = 1490A. The extinction free parameters derived from the observed ultraviolet colours enable determination of interstellar reddening, spectral type and luminosity. This photometric system has been evaluated by comparing these parameters with other classification parameters.
