Yes, but at what range? My business partner and I have "knocked down" car
engine controllers and household electronics with 750 kW peak at 3 GHz,
about 60 Hz rep rate, using a WWII surplus radar magnetron - at ranges in
the sub-50 yard area. You might knock out the line monitors and remote
operating equipment, but you sure are not going to pop any main feeders.
And, you are going to have a problem is the equipment in question is housed
inside a typical industrial building - masonry or steel walls are quite
good at reducing the effects of directed microwaves. It's peak power that
fries semiconductor junctions, and the peak power drops off awfully quick
under less than ideal conditions.
