A connector and a method for connecting the same are provided to prevent a mechanical stress from being generated between contacts when a plug is inserted into a socket, thereby suppressing the damage of the contacts. A connector comprises a plug(11), a socket(21), and a locking member(14). The plug includes a pair of connecting members(12), a through-hole(32) formed between the connecting members, and plug contacts(13) arranged on outer faces of the connecting members. The socket includes a concave portion for housing the plug therein and socket contacts(22) arranged on inner faces of the concave portion. The locking member is configured to lock the plug into the socket. The locking member splays out the pair of the connecting members so that the outer faces of the connecting members are correspondingly contacted with the inner faces of the concave portion when the locking member is inserted between the pair of the connecting members via the through-hole. A distance between inner side faces of the connecting members decreases from a largest distance, at upper ends of the connecting members, to a smallest distance at the lower ends of the connecting members, and prior to insertion in the socket, a distance between the outer side faces of the connecting members is uniform.
