Beams and missiles (and pulse) do not get stopped by local shields.
The local shields do shield you from possible reactor explosions that may get triggered though.

You'll deal hull damage, and shield HP won't decrease.
-QA Testing-
Shield protection against beams does not work for docks within the shield radius.
They protect just fine on the ship where the shield is, but any docks are completely unprotected. The docks are still protected against missiles and cannons though.
Included a test target (set shield power con to 0.0 and up the recharge if needed):
