3 options come to mind. 1, if the insulation is damaged bad enough, over enough wire.. replace it. 2, If it isn't that bad, and is isolated.. get some heat shrink tubing, and slide it over the bad spots and shrink with a hair dryer / heat gun. 3, Some of my buddies that word in metal salvage tell me tat to keep their welding leads from getting eaton up from sharp metal edges and being run over by forklifts, and pitted from welding arcs, and slag from torches, they get some rubber hose.. like heater line, something with an ID slightly bigger than the OD of the welder lead... lube it with cable-ease ( conduit lube ), and then pull it thru with a pilot wire.. Makes it a bit thicker and pulkier.. but armores it up good. Other 'looming' products like spiral loom ( spaghetti ), and split loom might work.. I'd vote for split loom, then use black tape every foot on it to secure the looming closed. Any of those should work. Heck.. i bought a tractor that had the battery and starter cables slid thru green garden hose as the insulation was so bad.. I changed those puppies out fast! Soundguy
