On 31 March 1988, Grave was appointed by the pope as titular bishop of Шаблон:Ill in Mauretania, and as auxiliary bishop of the Diocese of Essen.[3] He was the first bishop of the diocese who was born in Essen.[2] He chose for his motto: Mundi salvator dominus (Redeemer of the world is the Lord). He was consecrated as bishop by Hengsbach, along with auxiliary bishops Шаблон:Ill and Шаблон:Ill, at the Essen Cathedral on 3 May 1988.[3] Grave served in the functions until his retirement in 2008.[3]

Grave wrote a resignation for reasons of age to Pope Benedict XVI which was accepted on 27 June 2008.[3] He held a mass of thanks on 4 October 2008, his name day, attended by all bishops of Essen. In the following ceremony, Genn thanked him for his service to the diocese over a long time. Grave then served as parish priest in St. Mariae Geburt in Mülheim.[2][4]
