We present a mutual adjustment for mesh size parameters of the discretization and for penalty parameters. This enables to restrict the error resulting from the penalty technique to the same order as the discretization error without destroying the conditioning of the problem. Furthermore we analyze the convergence of the discrete coincidence set.
