How do I create a sinusoidal voltage source in Flux?

To define a sinusoidal voltage source with Flux, you use a formula of the form:
RMSVoltage * SQRT(2) * SIN(2 * PI * Frequency * TIME + PhaseShift)
where you specify the RMSVoltage (V), the Frequency (Hz) and PhaseShift (radians).

For example, if the RMSVoltage is 380V, the Frequency is 50Hz, and the phase is PI/2 (90 degrees), the formula to enter for the voltage source would be: 380*SQRT(2)*SIN(2*PI*50*TIME+(PI/2))
