Wait!
I can't explain why but I just replaced another positive battery cable on a 9-5. Strange! No corosion at all but the voltage at the battery was 12.67 with the car running at idle. When I checked the voltage at the positive cable on the alternator to ground the voltage was 13.78. I ckeaned and tightened the ground cable and voltage was up to 13.01 with a very low battery. I skeptically replaced the Positive cable and to by suprise, 14.2 volts. The cable had no visible signs of failure and showed .03 ohms resistance. Should have done a voltage drop test but it was already out.
