The question doesn't make sense.
to prevent a circuit from overloading if too much current flow safely interrupt the circuit if it becomes overloaded
A switch is a means of making (on) or breaking (off) an electrical circuit.
Circuit breakers do the same thing as fuses. They interrupt current flow when a certain preset point is reached. The difference between circuit breakers and fuses are that circuit breakers are resettable and reusable, whereas fuses are one time devices that must be replaced after they blow.
A circuit breaker is not a test instrument, it is a kind of switch that interrupts the supply when that is needed, but it is more than that because circuit breakers are specialised items, and examples exist that can interrupt currents of hundreds or thousands of amps at very high voltage.
Fuses and circuit breakers are designed to open a circuit when an excess amount of current occurs, so as to break that flow of current.A circuit breaker or fuse.

I think that the questioner is asking what is the difference between an isolator and a circuit breaker.A circuit breaker is a switching device designed to interrupt a fault current.An isolator is not intended to break a live circuit but, rather, to provide a visible separation between a circuit component and live conductors.For example, isolators (or 'disconnectors' in US parlance) are located on either side of a high-voltage circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker requires maintenance, then the procedure is to:a. trip the circuit breaker.b. open the isolators on each side of the circuit breaker, so there is a visible gap between the circuit breaker and the 'hot' conductors.c. apply temporary earths (grounds) between each isolator and the circuit breaker.d. complete a 'permit to work' card.e. begin work.

It limits the current to the circuit at 20 Amps. If a load on the circuit draws more than 20 Amps the breaker will trip and interrupt the current to all devices on the circuit.

Yes. But,circuit breaker are usually rated in terms of current they can interrupt,not the voltage.
A resistor is a device designed to detect difference in current and stop the flow of electricity. On most every type of electric engine or circuit has a resistor.
An interrupt vector is the memory address of an interrupt handler, or an index into an array called an interrupt vector table or dispatch table. Interrupt vector tables contain the memory addresses of interrupt handlers. When an interrupt is generated, the processor saves its execution state via a context switch, and begins execution of the interrupt handler at the interrupt vector.
