Ground cable chafing/arcing?

Greetings all!

Newbie here with a question. I searched, but didn't find this specific issue - just curious if anybody else has run into this problem.

I just picked up my 2006 1300c today. I gave it a thorough inspection once I got home - checking bolts, connections, etc. As I was checking the battery terminals I happened to look at the ground (negative) cable a bit closer and found this spot where it appears to have been chafed and/or arc'd through the insulation. I didn't see anything where the cable was routed that could have caused this...maybe a burr in a weld somewhere I've not found yet?

Anyway - wanted to know if anybody else has seen this issue before and might have suggestions on why it occurs?

Thanks...
