3rd degree burglary pretty much boils down to entering a 'structure' without permission while it is not occupied. 2nd degree is doing the same but when it is occupied and 1st is what 2nd is plus having a weapon, doing so at night or where physical harm is threatened or carried out.

3rd Degree Burglary

Burglary is a crime -- generally defined as breaking and/or entering into a building (sometimes a residence) without permission, usually with criminal intent.
The degree indicates the severity of the crime, with 3rd degree usually less severe than 2nd degree, etc.
Burglary 3rd Degree is defined in South Carolina Code section 16-11-313
"(A) A person is guilty of burglary in the third degree if the person enters a building without consent and with intent to commit a crime therein.
(B) Burglary in the third degree is a felony punishable by imprisonment for not more than five years for conviction on a first offense and for not more than ten years for conviction of a second offense according to the discretion of the Court. "

Third degree burglary is when someone enters a building without permission, and is planning on doing a crime while inside. Second degree is weapons usually. You can't really guess a sentence because it depends on the judge, and the actual acts, but the sentence will probably be longer because of the multiple counts of 3rd degree burglary.

S.C. Code Ann. § 16-11-313 (A) (Supp. 2001), provides that, "[a] person is guilty of burglary in the third degree if the person enters a building without consent and with intent to commit a crime therein." It means the person entered a building intending to commit a crime. A weapon would make the offense second degree.

Straight from the California Penal Code: 460. (a) Every burglary of an inhabited dwelling house, vessel, as defined in the Harbors and Navigation Code, which is inhabited and designed for habitation, floating home, or trailer coach, as defined by the Vehicle Code, or the inhabited portion of any other building, is burglary of the first degree. (b) All other kinds of burglary are of the second degree.
