No. Although the terms are used inter-changeably by most of the public - the crime of Robbery is a crime against a person. What the questioner describes is Burglary, which is a crime against property - UNLESS the home is occupied at the time of the break-in, THEN it becomes Robbery.

What does mean burglary?

Although the two terms are commonly used inter-changeably, "robbery" is an entirely different crime than "burglary." Robbery involves taking something from a person by use of threats, force, or fear. Burglary involves removing property from a premises or building. Since the charge specifies "habitation" it specifically relates to a dwelling place and not a commercial establishment. Usually, burglary of a 'dwelling place' carries a higher penalty due to the fact that the odds of encountering a victim/occupant of the residence is greater, thus the greater possibility of potential violence.
