The IUE observed TZ Fornacis at orbital phases 0.0, 0.25 and 0.79 in 1986. Most of the exposures were LWP-HI or SWP-LO. Results show that: the surface fluxes for transition region emission lines are similar to those for the Capella system while that of the Mg II emission is smaller; the total flux in the Mg II emission lines is constant with phase, whereas the flux in the C IV emission lines decreases by 1/3 during primary eclipse, indicating that most of the activity is due to the hotter giant (F7 III), which is also the case for Capella.
