Default 1450 Ignition Switch Terminal Melted

Hello, my 1st post after lurking for awhile. Lots of good info here.

Battery not charging, saw the proper voltage at the regulator, not good voltage at the battery. So I have been running and charging the battery for some time. Finally took the time to dig into the problem and saw melted and corroded wires at one of the terminals on the switch. It looked like terminal A on the switch was the most fried. I think when I replace the switch and the wires I will add a fuse or a resettable breaker, as I think this may be a symptom and not the actual problem. Question to the group is..
1. Has anyone else seen this issue
2. What could cause it..I know a short might do it

Thanks for looking..
