Why the voltage grade of cable is more than rated voltage?

Cables are classified based on insulation class and noted rated voltage.They are classified based on their nominal voltage.This is the maximum voltage which the cable can withstand for a short time period in the event of a fault.Rated voltage is with respect to continuous time duty i.e. Normal operation condition.

Will voltage drop over cable distance?

If the voltage is supplying any current through the cable, i.e. if there is any 'load' at the end, then the voltage will drop through the cable.

It will decrease the voltage drop.

Does the device or cable determine the voltage on a slow cooker?

The voltage is always determined by the device. (in this case a slow cooker).However, having established what voltage to supply to the device, the cable must be suitable for the voltage used. Everything in the chain of power transmission, must be rated for the correct voltage. Cables, plugs, fuses etc.

What are the advantages of increasing the voltage in a circuit?

For appliances that need a lot of power, the advantage of a higher voltage is that less current is needed, because power = voltage x current. That means that the cable doesn't need to be so thick. It also means that for a given percentage of voltage drop in the cable, the allowable volt-drop in the cable is higher when the supply voltage is higher. This also allows the use of a thinner cable especially when the cable is 100 ft long or more.
