What is diff between Vacuum contactor (with fuse) and Vacuum Circuit Breaker? Which one is better for motor control? Is there is any criteria for selection?

A circuit breaker offers short circuit protection only

A contactor is also known as a motor starter. With fuses it offers short circuit protection and has other devices builtin to offer overload protection.

How can you disagree with correct information? Disagreeing implies that you know the answer. Simply ask for more detail. What don't you understand? You asked a simple question you got the simple answer. Provide more detail to your question to gain more detail.

So you disagree with correct information that may not be enough or understandable to you, and you do not want to furnish answers to my questions?
