| What is the purpose of the synchronous compensator as shown in the illustration? |
| A) to automatically provide leading kVAr to exactly match the ship's lagging kVAr load so as to provide overall unity power factor |
| B) to automatically provide lagging kVAr to exactly match the ship's leading kVAr load so as to provide overall unity power factor |
| C) to automatically provide lagging kVAr to exactly match the ship's lagging kVAr load so as to provide overall unity |
| D) to automatically provide leading kVAr to exactly match the ship's leading kVAr load so as to provide overall unity |
