Line 4:

A player using the invention process takes a blueprint copy (BPC) for a Tech 1 item, adds certain specialized equipment, and attempts to create a BPC for a corresponding Tech 2 item. Although it sounds simple, invention can be very expensive and difficult to do successfully.

The (hopefully) created BPC will have a single run on a ship BPC, and 10 runs on everything else. Regardless of the research performed on the T1 BPC, the result will have exactly ME 2% and TE 4%.<ref name="crius">[https://www.eveonline.com/article/eve-industry-all-you-want-to-know ''EVE Industry - All you want to know''] (Crius Expansion).

Tech 2 blueprint copies ~~always~~ have 10 runs, +2% ME and +4% TE, unless modified by a decryptor.<ref name="crius"/> T2 BPCs for ships and rigs have 1 run (again unless modified by a decryptor). The only activity you can do with a T2 BPC is to manufacture it, you cannot research or copy it.
