Question about AC power distribution in CNC controller box

I am building a CNC controller.
I plan on having 4 switched AC outlets on the back controlled by
solid state relays.
#1 is power to the servo drive power supply.
#2 is spindle
#3 is mist coolant
#4 is flood coolant
#3 and #4 are assumed to be very low AMP requirement.
My question is, I want to put a 10A power entry module so I get it
all in one plug. Is this a bad idea? Can I put 2 of these modules and
split the power between say #3 and #4 + controller electronics power
and the put #1 and #2 on a seperate power cord? This way I would have
2 AC power cords entering one box. Is there a problem with ground
loops if you do this?
