Transitional protection query

I have to move from ESA support group to UC. I currently get severe disability premium (SDP) £82.90 + disability income guarantee £21.20 added to ESA. Will I get both these paid in transitional protection?

Transitional Protection is added if your total UC award (before deductions) is lower than legacy benefits at the time of transfer.
TP does erode over time as other elements go up or new elements are added.
It's very likely with SDP in your ESA claim you will qualify for TP.

Thanks for reassuring me.
