Electric Hall effects generated by an in-plane magnetic field have recently gained attention owing to their intrinsic origin in topological electronic states and potential application in magnetic field sensing. In practice, the measured transverse electric voltage typically combines contributions from multiple phenomena, such as anisotropy and Berry curvature effects, leading to interpretative ambiguities of the measurement signal. Here, we introduce an experimental protocol that disentangles these contributions via their distinct field‑reversal symmetries and angular dependencies. Leveraging a 12‑terminal Hall bar for independent control of the electric and in-plane magnetic field directions, we exemplify this method by analyzing the transverse electric voltage recorded on the the ferromagnetic Weyl semi-metal Fe3Sn in an in-plane geometry. The methodology presented in this work will guide future studies of in-plane Hall responses in magnetic and topological materials.
